Howdy, cowgirls and boys and welcome back to The Recruiting RodeošŸŽ and 2026!

It’s been a while since I last posted and as I’ve communicated to some of you, The Recruiting RodeošŸŽ is on ā€œpauseā€ — meaning, my clever stories and advice about talent acquisition, hiring, job searching, and resume development, created for job seekers and talent acquisition professionals alike, is on hiatus. From here forward, I’ll be sharing information intermittently.

Like this ā€œgolden nuggetā€ I spotted on my ex-favorite professional social media networking platform yesterday:

These tips, from a ā€œCEO Coachā€ I follow on LinkedIn, Eric Partaker, can also be applied to the interviewing process. Your job search.

Because on a job interview, most likely being conducted via video (I’d like to see them in person, especially for finalist rounds), you want to communicate, no matter how limited or expansive your experience, with authority, confidence, and gravitas.

Not easy when you’ve only been working for a year or three, I get it. But it’s not easy for those who have been working for 10-50 years either. Trust me, I interview people for a living. No two executives who work in the same job function and/or industry are the same. And neither are their communication skills. Their ā€œpresentation.ā€

Being ā€œbuttoned upā€ in your oral ā€œstorytellingā€ — which means leading with real examples of your work and/or leadership and the results your work or leadership generated or helped generate, your ā€œimpactā€ā€” that is SUPER important. But so is language choice and ā€œhowā€ you communicate.

It’s not just the information you’re sharing, it’s how you choose to share it and these CEO phrases can help you become and appear more confident in your storytelling and overall communications.

These tips were an eye-opener for me and will definitely help me fine-tune my written and oral communications moving forward. I hope they can help you fine-tune your communications, as well!
