What can you do to increase your chances of landing the interview or the hire?

For both candidates and companies, creating a more equitable hiring process requires effort and commitment. In this interview with HR expert, Nora Burns, (aka The Undercover Candidate) we dive into the importance of women exuding confidence and competence, starting with something as simple as a firm handshake. We discuss how women can combat bias by making eye contact, speaking confidently, and we provide specific examples to help showcase our skills during interviews. 

Remember, it's essential to be true to yourself, prioritize comfort and confidence in your attire, and thoroughly research the organization before a job interview. By doing so, you can show up as your best self and make a lasting impression.
