Today we’re gonna look at another deadly sin of interviewing the sin of not researching the person or people who are on your calendar. I’m Jeff Altman, The Big Game Hunter. People hire me for no BS job search advice and coaching globally, because I make things so much easier for people around that, and I have to say, much more.
Now, there’s a difference in how you speak with a talent acquisition person, a difference with a member of staff, a manager, a leader, a board member. Each has a different perspective for the role and what they’ll want to accomplish in an interview.
In addition, knowing their background may afford you an opportunity to connect with someone who knows them, what their likes are, and their pet peeves.
Never walk into an interview without knowing the background and role the person or people you’ll meet with
“Who will I be meeting with?”
A few people on the team?”
“What are their names?”
“Sheila, Ho and Dan.”
What their full names, please? I want to research them online and what they do.”
It’s really that simple.
