Present Yourself as an Asset, Not a Risk
When applying for a job, it's crucial to understand that companies hire to fulfill a need, not to take a chance on someone. Instead of viewing yourself as a risk, approach job interviews by presenting yourself as an asset who can bring immediate value to the team. Embrace the opportunity to showcase your skills and accomplishments confidently, demonstrating why you are the right fit for the position. During interviews, ask insightful questions to understand the company culture and the reasons behind employees' loyalty or departure, providing a nuanced perspective without directly critiquing the organization.
