13- Interviewing (part-2) Example Interview Responses.
Stories stick. Weather someone shares their stories of their failures, or of their successes these are lessons that have stuck with me. I’ve learned so much from some of my favorite podcast hosts on how they answer leadership style questions via their examples and stories. With the countless example responses I’ve heard over the years that might pop up on a typical interview along with the research I’ve done, in this episode I share with you my stories of my career in the form of a mock interview. I provide my example responses to all the typical questions that would most likely show up on your next interview. I’m hoping that through the power of my examples and stories, that this episode could help level up your interviewing ability. However, to get good at interviewing it requires more than just listening to a podcast or two. It requires continuous research, practice and learning from your failures. Most of my answers are deeply rooted in the many leadership books and podcasts I’ve listened to over the years and they serve as the backbone to many of my answers. I wish you the best of luck in your future interview endeavors.
I must give kudos (and there are plenty others not mentioned) to some of those sources that have helped provide good leadership tactics for me in one way or another:
