Am I being automatically rejected for not meeting the exact screening questions?
Over deze aflevering
<p>Am I being automatically rejected from a job for not meeting the exact screening questions?</p><p>That is the question we answered in this week's episode, after Elizabeth, who has 3 years' experience and was applying for a role asking for 4, sent us her conundrum!</p><p>The short answer? It's very unlikely - so keep shooting your shot!</p><p>Screening questions are used to save recruiters time, and, in most cases, a recruiter is still looking at your application. The questions have just made it easier for them to filter through the candidates.</p><p>Give this episode a listen to hear what advice Sarah and Emma have for Elizabeth.</p><p>🏀 Shoot Your Shot - Shoutout to Jess who bought us 5 coffees!</p><p>"Emma + Sarah, eternal thanks for the absolutely thoughtful, empathetic, actionable and just generally rad podcast! I found your podcast after my initial phone screen, and I listened to episodes in between every following round until I was finally offered the job!!! This 100% includes the listen to this before/after episodes. The sniffing on time disagreement during deep breaths made me chuckle every time I heard it and made my anxiety melt away. I would buy the coffees just for that magic alone, but I must also credit you both for a great perspective on the job hunt and interviewing...I think I probably could have gotten this job without listening to this podcast, but I don't think I would have felt so confident, engaged, and powerful in the process. I left every interview feeling like I had shown up in a great way, but also that I had gotten useful information about the company that would ultimately help me make my decision. Big thanks all the way from Missouri USA for cheering us all on to become interview bosses!"</p><p>📄 To get step by step help with your interview prep on demand check out our Interview Academy <a href="https://www.interviewboss.com.au/interview-academy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.interviewboss.com.au/interview-academy</a></p><p>☕ Did our podcast help you out?
