Putting myself out there again. September 15, 2008
Posted by Staci in : Work Stuff , trackbackSo tomorrow well technically later on today I have another interview. This is also for a temporary coaching position at my work. They need 15 people so I hope my chances are pretty good. I know I can do the job. Hell for more then a year I have been doing the job with the title of “Subject Matter Expert” with great success. I just interview poorly. I know this. I get nervous. My hands shake. I forgot my own name. I focus so much on not fidgeting that I appear stiff and unapproachable. My company interviews in what is called the STAR story format. The questions all start out with “tell me a time when……” They can’t make it simple and ask questions about my qualifications, my job skills, or anything else. I hate that. I have a hard enough time selling myself as it is and to have to remember details about specific stories when I am having trouble remembering my name is beyond not fun.
Well I just need to remember to Be Positive. Be Confident. Be Myself. Easier said then done but I am going to try.
