How To Land Your Dream Job

How to land your dream jobYou know what they say… “Do what you love, love what you do,” and who doesn’t want to land their dream job, right?This month, we thought we would share some tips on helping you land that dream job, once you land an interview.

Getting hired, means being the perfect candidate.  

A perfect candidate prepares!  The more prepared you’re the more impressed the interviewee will be!  Want to take it a step further, do some research on the company and “know” everything there is to “know” about the company.  If you want extra special points, do a little research on your interviewee too!  When it comes to standing out from the crowd, being prepared is the best way to set yourself apart from everyone else!

Show off your superstar skills.

Part of being prepared for the interview, is showing why you’re the perfect candidate for the job.  Take some time to identify and list out how your past experiences relate to the required skills for the position.  Once you have those, pull together different examples that you can share within the interview that will showcase your superstar skills and how they relate to the job.  Don’t forget to keep both your personal and career experience relevant to the position you are applying for.

Don’t be afraid to share why you are the superstar for the job.

An interview is a time to sell yourself, so don’t be shy.  Let your best qualities shine and let your potential employer know exactly why you are the perfect candidate.  Use the research you did on the company to share specific examples of how you can improve the company or solve problems they may be facing.

Now, go out there, be your best self and land that dream job!
