NOTE

Self-awareness and Preparation in Job Interviews

In job interviews, it is crucial to focus on self-awareness and preparation rather than solely on researching the company. Hiring managers are interested in understanding the interviewee more than just company knowledge. Questions about one's strengths, weaknesses, and future goals are common and require practice and reflection. Self-awareness, understanding personal traits like being a challenger, examiner, or harmonizer, can enhance interview performance. Hiring managers should avoid relying solely on personal feelings during interviews to prevent biases. Interviewees should clarify their objectives, address biases, and adapt their interview style prior to the interview.
