About this episode
<p>So your first interview was a success, and you're invited into a second round. Congratulations! Preparing for a second round interview is a lot like preparing for your first, only this time you've already gotten past the initial hurdle of nailing your resume and getting in the door. </p><p>What your interview includes will depend a little on who you’re meeting - is it the very same people? Are you meeting a higher up decision maker? In this week’s episode, Sarah and Emma teach you what you need to do to nail a second round interview… and our advice might sound pretty familiar!</p><p>🏀 Shoot Your Shot - Shoutout to Gates - “Hi Emma & Sarah! 💕I have been listening to you lovely ladies for 2 weeks and combined with your techniques, I have also been working with lots of manifestation tricks and HAD to tell you! About a week ago, one of my former bosses/mentor texted me and said he had a position available. I decided to go with my gut and interview even though I was happy in my current job. At that point, I had been listening to your podcast for 1 week, and this opportunity came to me out of thin air!!! A few days before I had the interview, I was averaging about 4-5 podcast episodes a day. Then the time came, I KILLED the interview with the butt clenching tip, accepted the water, and had all my stories prepped. Two days later (today), the Director reached out to me and offered exactly what I was asking ($25,000) higher than my current wage. I am just so baffled and I couldn’t believe this happened…Thank you so so much - You have a life listener! 💕✨”</p><p>📄 To book an interview coaching session with Sarah, go to <a href="http://www.interviewboss.com.au/coaching" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.interviewboss.com.au/coaching</a> </p><p>💌 Follow us on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/interviewboss/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a></p><p>💻 Check out our website for free jobseeker resources</p><p><a href="https://dashboard.whooshkaa.com/567c163a/episodes/735473/www.interviewboss.com.au" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.interviewboss.com.au</a></p>
