"Interview Tip" What do you do when you don't know the answer to a question? If you are unsure about how to respond, don’t hesitate to ask the interviewer for a moment to gather your thoughts, experts say. You can politely ask for a second, or you can also ask the interviewer to repeat the question. Another approach may be to tell the interviewe that’s a great question and ask for a moment to gather your thoughts so you can approach this to the best of your ability. From there, take no more than 60 seconds to think to yourself or even write down your answer on paper. Surprisingly, those 60-seconds may contribute to a well-thought-out and thorough response. But remember, in the end it isn’t about providing a right answer. Instead, it is about how you respond to the pressure and show confidence in yourself. #disability #jobs #interviewtips disABLEDperson.com

"Interview Tip" Question! What Kind of Impact Do You Hope to Have in Your Next Role? With this question, the interviewer wants to know what you can do for the company. How will you positively impact them. How to Answer "What Kind of Impact Do You Hope to Have in Your Next Role?" Tailor your answer to the specific industry and job you are applyingto. Generally, you can stress that you want to build on the skills you bring to the table and that you hope to leverage your experience from your last position to help the company achieve its goals. Here is an example of a response. “One of my biggest goals that I plan to achieve with my next employer is to bring my knowledge and experience to date to create something big. The first part of my career has been about understanding as much as I can and now I finally feel like I’m in the perfect place to have a significant impact in whatever and wherever I’m working.” #disability #interview disABLEDperson.com
