I've got one on Tuesday that looks like my best shot at a new job since I got laid off in the summer. It's with a vice president of the company and the person whose position I'm filling since she got promoted

I'm just a little weirdo, I don't know how to make them want to hire me boohoo

I'm a fuxked weirdo myself. Main things are making sure you answer the questions, know what you're applying for, and ask questions about the interviewers related to the role.

Ive been in the backgrounds of hiring and people will not know what job they're applying for, talk way too long and still not answer the question asked, and have no questions after the interview is over.

Doing those 3 things will make you look competent, interested, and personable (blegh)

I got my job because I literally did a training in my free time and could speak lingo on what the job did. Also lie on stories they can't fact check. Activate rizz mode, fellow gamer πŸ₯ΈπŸ‘
