Episode 18

How to handle each stage of the interview process: ft a dating analogy!

From stressing about repeating yourself, to wondering if the hiring team is comparing notes behind your back, progressing through multiple rounds of interviews can leave you second-guessing what you're supposed to say each time.

In this week’s episode, Sarah and Emma answer a listener question about navigating multi-stage interviews without running out of things to say, using a dating analogy.

We explain why it's okay to repeat yourself, how much interviewers actually talk behind the scenes, and why consistency is far more important than coming up with "new" examples.

🏀 Shoot Your Shot - Shoutout to Katherine who bought us 3 coffees!

“Thank you so much! Last Summer my husband accepted a job role in Sydney so we packed up everything in the UK and made the move in November. I left my job which I loved and started listening to your podcast a lot! In all honesty I thought it would be much easier than it was to find new work and even just getting interviews has been a real challenge. We’ve been living here in Aus for 6 months and I was starting to get a bit disheartened by the whole thing but… I’ve just landed an amazing new role with a fantastic organisation! I wanted to send a huge thank you, I used so many of your tips and insights and it really helped me to get more of a feel for the Australian job market which was invaluable. Up until now I also had a real mental block about interviews and thought I was terrible at them but your approach has made all the difference and I now feel that when I get an interview I can smash it! So excited for my new job and next adventure. Thank you!”
