We’re about to wrap up a big month for hiring.
How’s your job search coming?!
I hope you’re getting those interviews and, today, I have a not-so-little something special to help.
I’m covering one of my all-time favorite questions to ask an employer in a job interview…
“What does success look like—exactly?”
If you don’t know what success looks like, how will you know what goals to shoot for?
How would you know whether you’re working toward the right results?
How would you—or THEY—know how to “grade” your performance?
It absolutely amazes me any organization can function, let alone survive, without knowing the answer to this question for every single person it employs.
BUT (you knew this was coming), you and I know this happens frequently.
Now, I already told you the question—which is the main theme for today’s lesson.
But, how could I have possibly spent 26:32 on this ONE question?
Because, THIS question will become the centerpiece of your entire job search.
And (taking a giant deep breath here to say all this all without pausing so please forgive the upcoming run-on sentence)…
THIS question will make you successful if you focus on it from the time you think about what you want to do with your career to writing your resume and cover letters and LinkedIn profile to choosing which companies and people you target, how you get the interviews, what you say to those nice people in the interviews, and…when you finally ask this question in the interview…to confirm you know what success looks like and on you go to the counteroffer.
I’m pretty sure that’s how I lay it out and everything I ultimately cover in this action-packed, highly-education, pivotal lesson.
Get ready to change the way you think about job searching!
