How do you prep for interviews ?
I received a job offer to an Amazon DSP company. The interview went great, everything seemed extremely positive. I completed the entire onboarding process and was only waiting for my background check to come back before starting training. The app said I would receive an email within 10 days with next steps but it's been 3 weeks and I haven't heard anything, the recruiter hasn't answered my calls or responded to my texts and there's no other contact info online. Do I give up or hold out?
I'm a Maternity RN of over 5 years and I'm getting tired of the stress and hours; I want to look at my options if I do decide to leave bedside as I've become very jaded with the healthcare system. I've been an educator of my peers in many different ways and on a few different levels as well as doing a lot of patient education. I have been told I may make a good "Corporate Educator", but I do not know what that means and how to start looking for opportunities. Any advice or starting points?
How do I get past the AI companies are using to get a new job in a new field? I lost my career as a truck driver due to health reasons. twenty years down the drain. i was out of work for 3.5 months before taking a job from a temp agency. that pays just over minimum wage. I have worked in other industries prior to driving including owning a small business with 15 employees. I get refusals quickly almost every time I to a job I'm interested in. Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated.
How does one even begin to think to go back to work when life isn’t just lifing, you went through some really f’d up stuff… career pivot from customer service possible start but what low stress jobs hire people like me with a social anxiety and ptsd? Work from home are so hard to find but best option.
Hi everyone, I’ve been working in restaurants/hospitality for years and I’m trying to pivot into office/corporate roles like operations, recruiting, HR, admin, or project coordination. I know restaurant work builds transferable skills, but it’s been hard getting recruiters to look past the “server” title. For anyone who successfully pivoted out of hospitality/service industry, what helped you make the transition?
I go over the job description. Prepare my answers to at least answer two main questions using the STAR method. If you interview enough you just reuse & apply it to that specific role.
I recommend listening to Emma Grede’s Podcast. Her episode on How to Nail Your Next Interview was quite fantastic and valuable. Good luck!
use Ai to help you structure your answers paste the job description in a strong AI tool and prompt it to come up with a list of possible questions, then prepare the answers to those. a lot of recruitment teams get questions to interview candidates using AI, so just do the same thing as a candidate
I would look up the person(s) who will be interviewing me on LinkedIn (their role, what they post about related to their role/company, past work) and write 2-3 very specific, tailored questions for them for the end of the interview. Also, seconding prepping to answer questions in the STAR format.
Getting a career coach for a few sessions can really boost your confidence for interviews. They'll help you figure out what questions might come up and how to give genuine answers that make you shine without overdoing it.
