If you are applying to hundreds of jobs each week, it can be difficult to remember what all you’ve applied to. So when you get an interview, you may appear not to be excited about it, and that is a red flag to an employer. Find Your Dream Job guest Julissa Vasquez says a great way to stand out from other applicants is to know why you want the job, why you’re the best fit for the job, and the immediate needs of the company. Julissa wants you to do your research on the people who work there, and the values of the company, and then share how you can meet those needs with specific examples that show you really want this job.
