you are interviewing them as much as they are interviewing you. they are not doing you a favor, you earned the opportunity to provide value to their org. make them fear losing out on having you as an employee. research the company as much as possible. find details relevant to your role. Be careful with what information you tell them and what you exclude because those will be questions they ask you later. if you get nervous before you go in: breathe in for 4 sec, hold it for 4 sec, and breathe out for 4 sec. good luck

Hi! I recently went through this as well. I haven’t been to an interview in three years, so I had to freshen up. I think researching the position within the company is so important. It’s important to ask questions because it shows how much more interested you are about them, like questions about your position that are not too obvious on the application page. You should pick some of the job objectives and show how your skills can contribute to that specifically. Make connections with that job and also have specific reasons on why you would like to work there. Also, three questions to ask them in the end! 1) What do they like about their job? 2) Why do they like working for this company? 3) What are they looking for in a person to successfully fill in the role you’re interviewing for?
Hope this helps!

You’re also interviewing them to see if you wanna work there. Ask questions about the company’s goals and plans and working styles. Find out about the culture from people working there (even better if you can ask them to speak to additional people not on the hiring panel, provided you make it to final stages). Ask people stuff that gets at the kind of working environment it would be for you: when was the last time they took vacation and how often do they? How does the company prefer to communicate? Is it a meeting heavy culture? Etc etc etc, just ask whatever you can to get a sense of whether you’d be happy in this environment say 18 months.

just about to give a wise ass answer has me realizing how dreadful interviews must be if you’re passionate about the job and not just cynically trying to milk it for what it’s worth.
I genuinely hope you get the job.

i Am a proud fan of weird women!!!
Newest weird woman acquisition: the cute shy girl from my MBA program with a curly bob and red highlights.
Shes so quiet and shy, we’ve had every class together so far over 3 semesters and barely ever spoke aside from her saying happy Valentine’s Day to me in February. Fast forward to this semester I sit next to her first day of finance class and decide to Be friendly and chat. She’s quiet but cool so I get her number, offer to maybe study later in the semester (which is a mild courtesy as I was lowkey just gaining new allies in the class to assist with cheating).
But once I started texting her about class we just never stopped texting, and now I think we’re actively flirting? Shes into dark romance novels? she brought one of her novels to class yesterday and after class she snuggled up against me in the hallway and made me read a (very graphic) page about a girl getting fucked by a gun? This chick is nuts. Am I catching feelings?

*only do this when you MUST get FLY and exude unspeakable and ineffable confidence where ppl will probably call you a cocky asshole*
recite this prayer:
Dear Haters,
You can all suck my balls from the back and my dick from the front.
I was born to be great.
you were all born to debate my greatness.
Clearly we are not the same.
in times of uncertainty I stand tall.
Even when alone, my spirit is guided by God’s invisible hand who shields me from the bullshit.
A back this broad was earned by climbing to places most could never reach.
If theyve never seen these heights, how could they comprehend my perspective?
Anyone with something negative to say is miles beneath me with mushy shit in their pamper and piss dribbling down their soft, weak legs.
Thank you mint god for humility.
Thank you mint god for strength.
Love,
(Your name)
And although I may not appear in the physical form, you will feel an aura of mint purple surrounding you and a genuine earthy sense of pride in your chest to continue on your mission, no fucks given.
