Your Pitch: At the Interview


Listen Later

In today’s episode, we’ll provide you with tips on how to give your elevator pitch in an interview setting. We’ll also answer a listener question about how to address a work gap in an interview and dive deeper into our resource of the day, Big Interview. 

Topic #1: Pierre talks about the resource of the day, Big Interview, which helps prepare you for an interview by learning about interview tips and allowing you to practice your skills. 

Topic #2: Michelle discusses how to give your elevator pitch during an interview, including how to answer the question, “Tell me about yourself.” How to use the STAR method during an interview is also briefly mentioned. 

Topic #3 (Listener Mail): Rebecca answers our listener mail question, “I have been a stay-at-home parent for the last 10 years and I am finally getting back into the workforce. How should I talk about this in an interview?”
