Early in Season One, I had an episode titled “The Pendulum Swings” where I discussed the return of the pre COVID and pre hiring boom job market dynamics. Industry has re-embraced higher standards and practices when it comes to hiring, and that includes the return to formal interviews that are behavioral, situational and performance based.

Those who are not prepared for these types of interviews may find themselves struggling to answer the interviewer’s questions. I am personally seeing this, where once the resume walk through is completed, the candidate is unable to answer the situational, behavioral or performance based questions that follow. The end result is a hiring manager telling me, “Pat, good resume, poor interview. He/she was not prepared and could not answer my questions. I will pass.”

Tune in to hear how you can be better and best prepared for this style of interview.
