Press STAR to Nail your Next Job Interview

Before we get to our topic, we have a quick plug of our newest social channel: TikTok! We are utilizing TikTok as a space to offer short-form sports career advice, so please give us a follow as we help you get where you want to be in the sports industry. We spend a lot of time dispensing job interview tips on the WorkInSports Podcast because interviews are a fact of life when searching for a new job. A lot of preparation goes into landing an interview, including tailoring your resume to fit the position (which we can help with!) and crafting the perfect cover letter (we can help there too!). Once you’re invited to interview, the effort shifts to researching the company and preparing to make the right impression. Michael from Tukwila, Washington, has a question about doing so:“Brian, I love your excitement about job interviewing. You really get into the spirit of the moment, the research, the different environments, and how to handle them. It’s all great, but I am still not good at answering the questions given to me and am better with a structured response plan. Do you have any ideas to help me?”One strategy that can help focus your responses while still sounding genuine is the STAR Interview Method. Catch the full episode for examples of applying this interview technique, and be sure to subscribe to the WorkInSports Podcast for more sports career advice. Also, subscribe to our YouTube Channel for additional content. We’d also be remiss if we didn’t mention again that we are now on TikTok and we would love you to follow us there!
