If this is happening to you on a regular basis, it could be a matter of not being prepared enough. Find Your Dream Job guest Lorraine Rise suggests sharing a few examples of career success that address the specific challenges of the open position. Be specific in your answers, and don’t be afraid to own both your strengths and your weaknesses. Practice your interview answers with a friend or in a mirror, and go in with confidence.
