In today’s episode of Stop, Drop, and ROLE, we’re tackling the nerve-wracking world of interviews—an experience so stressful that many find it more terrifying than a trip to the dentist!

Whether you're searching for your next role or exploring opportunities to grow within your current one, Jen's 6-step Stop, Drop & ROLE framework will guide you in asking the right questions, reflecting on your values, and approaching interviews as an authentic, mutual evaluation. Plus, there's bonus material with targeted questions to ask in any interview!
