About this episode
<p>You're trying to answer the unanswerable - what questions will I be asked in my next job interview? Step away from the google search, and close the ‘common interview questions’ blog post. </p><p>In this episode, Sarah and Emma talk through how you can use the job description to help you predict what a company is looking for. Based on the ad you'll be able to narrow down the types of questions they will be asking, whilst still being prepared for anything! </p><p>🏀 Shoot Your Shot - Shoutout to Chantelle who booked a coaching session with Sarah. She said, “Sarah provided me with extremely actionable and tangible advice that gave me the confidence to walk into my next interview and ace it. The advice was also relevant across a number of roles I was applying for which was extremely beneficial - it felt like learning a new ‘formula’ that could be applied to any role now or in the future. A great investment and use of time and would 110% recommend Sarah’s services when you want to stand out from a crowd and make an impact in your interviews.” Chantelle updated us before the break with one job offer locked in, and another on the way!!
