✨I’ve seen a lot of interview advice over the years. Here are some of my own personal pointers for those pavement-pounding #Jobseekers out there.✨ 1. Know Your Worth – You got the interview because you're qualified. Beyond that, I’m a big believer in visualization and mindset. You have to see the win to achieve the win. Before walking into an interview, take a breath and say to yourself, ‘They’ve been looking for me, and now I’m here.’ 2. First Impressions Matter – With #1 in mind, be confident but not cocky. Always arrive 5 minutes early, and bring a copy of your resume. The ‘five-block rule’: Always be kind, especially to everyone within five blocks of the interview location—you never know who might be an interviewer. Sensory details matter too! Consider the look and feel of the brand when making style choices, but always keep it professional. 3. You're Unique, Showcase It – Authenticity wins! Hiring managers have likely heard every origin and success story. Be ready with interesting stories about major turning points in your career. This is your moment to toot your own horn about the biggest hurdles you've jumped, the toughest conflicts you've resolved, or the highest goals you've crushed. Have a wild story about that Friday night when you ran out of forks and spoons? Share how you fixed it on the fly and still delivered a special birthday candle to table 64. Explain how you prevented it from happening again with a new system. 4. Be Prepared – It’s a competitive market, so if you get an interview, become an expert on the brand beforehand. Google, Eater, LinkedIn—use all the resources you can. I'm here to help too. ;) 5. Lean on Your Recruiter – Our success is based on your success. We’re in this together, so share your concerns, ask questions, and follow up with us after every interview. Communication with your recruiter is critical, and it helps us form a lasting relationship. We WANT to hear from you! Feel free to drop your best interview prep pointers in the comments below. -MM
