Interviews

1. Focus and concision

Interviewers don’t give you hundreds of hours to talk. It doesn’t matter whether you’ve prepared for your interviews over 10 years or a day. Your interviewers know what they want from you, and you ought to know the same.

Time constraint, or 30-60 minutes or more depending on circumstances, forces you to show your interviewer how mature, committed, focused, and responsible you are. That sounds intimidating, but your interviewers are deadly serious. They’re not looking to breastfeed you, but to hire and make you work to your pain and suffering if not death. So each minute, each second, split second counts, which compels you to be highly calculated ahead of time and present yourself above and beyond others.

2. Unusual experiences

Only real, unusual, and formative experiences that gave rises to who you are now can offer ingredients for the kind of maturity, commitment, focus, and responsibility you must demonstrate to persuade your interviewers to your advantage. Yet each of the four success factors doesn’t need to be big or fancy, but must be relevant to your interviewers and the employers they work for. That is, no matter how important something is to you, they don’t give a shit. Get every emotion and illusion out of the way. Get real and know what your interviewers and their employers want.

They want to make sure that you will give them every day, every hour, every minute of your time and energy to serving and achieving their goal – the most serious and dedicated. That sounds pretty bad, doesn’t it? They know that you want an easy job to begin with, one that pays you a lot for the much comfort you seek. They care most about the four success factors.

Long ago, employers would take those that will put up with their shit and walk through pain and suffering. Now, it’s not just about artificial intelligence, but their work culture has shifted from understanding and embracing people’s needs to streamlining actions and achieving outcomes. More than ever, personal needs are deprioritized – unless you’re a super or hyper performer every employer covets. So the chances of landing a job for hard working, “average” brains are pretty slim. Employers want those that will go for the kill, get things done, and bring them trophies every time – they want results.

3. Inspiration

For the employers looking for high performers to super or hyper performers, this is obvious. However, applicants don’t understand this, nor realize what it takes to become engaged with what the employers do. Unfortunately, you must present one or two pillars of success : what your potential employer ought to do to improve or take their performance to another level, or what they haven’t thought about or attempted to do. The former directly connects you to any of their relevant business line or lines, while the latter prompts you to take their business lines in an entirely new context.

Meaning, as for the former, if you present anything that makes sense for any reason, your interviewers will dig into what you present. And unless each interviewer seeks to diss you for any reason, the people you meeting through the subsequent interviews can and might peel your skin off and see what substance you have. As for the latter, you beat them up and shove something very new straight from down their ass up through their head. So any sophisticated mind will make the interviewers hooked on both the former and the latter, the two propositions employer needs

The chances of them finding you rare and exquisite being small can increase your chances of success. However, you must put additional pieces of work together to make yourself rare and exquisite. Otherwise, they will take you for a retard or demented. This reverts you to what you achieve and fail and succeed long before you ever interview.

The bottom line is, as always, you must demonstrate your ability to achieve business capabilities and generate revenues for your employer. Otherwise, you can start and run your own business.
