I recently came across this article in Forbes magazine. As you can imagine, it’s not something I read all the time.
The article is written for the normal sort of Forbes audience, which isn’t you. I wanted to draw it to your attention because it makes something really clear about the hiring process:
There are only 3 interview questions.
What they mean by that, is that every interview question is trying to get at one of 3 things. This applies to academic interviews, corporate interviews, non-profit interviews … any job you ever apply for.
The 3 questions are (from the Forbes article):
1. Can you do the job?
2. Will you love the job?
3. Can we tolerate working with you?
Are you focusing on all 3 questions when you write your application materials and prepare for interviews? Or are you just focusing on the first one?
The Conscious Careers course helps you identify the elements necessary to address all 3 questions. We also give you tools to narrow down your job search to jobs that are a good match on all 3 criteria.
The next session of Conscious Careers starts March 7, 2012. If you register by February 29th, it is $149 USD. Click for more information and to register.
