The next time you are sitting down for an interview, don't just sit back and see what happens!

Using the Who, What, Why, and How strategy will help you lean forward, take control, and crush your interview.
WHO? - Make sure that the person interviewing has no doubts about who you are. What's your personal elevator speech (30 seconds or less)? When describing who you are, it is critical that you provide specific examples as evidence otherwise they are just empty catch words.
What? - What have you accomplished (provide specifics)? What are you looking for? What are you going to do when you get this role?
Why? - Why are you thinking about making a change? Why are you interested in this role? Why have you been successful? Why is this the right opportunity for you and why are you the right person for this opportunity?
How? - The how is just as important as the what. Once you have communicated what you have accomplished, you need to be able to explain how you did it. You also want to make it clear how your past success is going to translate into success in this role.
Good luck and I hope this information helps you crush your next interview!

3 年These are some awesome questions of which candidates should take note, Tom! They do lead to great follow-up questions and conversations at the vast majority of the interviews. With my being on countless phone and video interviews over the past year due to the year we've had, it's become apparent that there is a fine line between responding too briefly, answering and giving specific recent examples and being long-winded. How long and specific of a response would you recommend to the "walk me through your resume" question?
