Why I Started Seattle Interview Coach “A candidate can have the best skills and work experience in the world - completely different and novel - but if that person can't explain it to others, it doesn't matter.”  – Adapted from Gregory Burns, Professor of Economics, Emory University Copyright 2010, Seattle Interview Coach
7 interview secrets 6 Copyright 2010, Seattle Interview Coach
Secret #1: The Springboard Tactic 7 Copyright 2010, Seattle Interview Coach
Secret #2: You Can Ask Questions Too 8 Copyright 2010, Seattle Interview Coach
Secret #3: Signposting Tells the interviewer where you are going. It makes it easier to follow. You’ll also come across as organized and in control. 9 Copyright 2010, Seattle Interview Coach
Secret #4: Body language matters Lean forward to demonstrate interest Project a strong voice Maintain eye contact Don’t sway your body or head Smile 10 Copyright 2010, Seattle Interview Coach
Secret #5: Relax It’s natural to feel nervous. Pretend you are having coffee with a friend. You have nothing to lose. If you don’t get the job, at least you’ve learned more about a new company.  And who knows, you might’ve met a new friend. 11 Copyright 2010, Seattle Interview Coach
Secret #6: Be creative It’ll help you standout from others. In addition to getting credit for being creative, you’ll extra effort will be noteworthy. Some ideas: Write a business plan, either for the company or for you. Design marketing collateral for a brand new product concept. Do some informational interviews. Visit the store or factory. 12 Copyright 2010, Seattle Interview Coach
Secret #7: Practice, practice, practice. You’ll be less nervous and more polished with practice. The best candidates practice 30 hrs. per interview. Rehearse with your family & friends. Record yourself using a video camera, webcam, or tape recorder. Practice in front of the mirror And of course, you can always get professional coaching 13 Copyright 2010, Seattle Interview Coach
