Brandon Holmes: I have a potential informal interview with executive producers looking for freelance editors as a result of our outreach and I want to be prepared for it. 

• Enter every interview with the mindset that it’s about them, not about you and approach with these three acts:
• Act 1: Start with why you’re excited for the opportunity and how you can be valuable. Transition smoothly by asking about challenges they face and where they want to go next.
• Act 2: Discover their goals and obstacles and determine if it’s the right fit for you.
• Act 3: End by clarifying timeline expectations to guide confident follow-ups and avoid spiraling thoughts.
• Take control of the interview by asking thoughtful questions and making them talk more than you.
• Practice mock interviews to strengthen your opening and prepare under real pressure.
• Go through the deep dive case study of mock interviews in the Vault.
