Episode 10 – 10 ways you should (and shouldn’t) act like a politician in your next job interview

10/06/2020 By Joshua Tinkey

Politicians

Listen now!


Today’s Episode

What can we learn from how we see a politician interview?

Agree or disagree with them, there are many long-standing strategies politicians use to get their message across, stand out, and get others to like them.

In today’s episode I dive into 10 ways you should (and shouldn’t) act like a politician in your next job interview.

I review 5 ways you should, and 5 ways you shouldn’t use the strategies often employed by politicians around the globe.

You’ll walk away with a new approach to your interview mindset and an appreciation for how a politician interview plays out.

I also answer one question I received about interview best practices.
