| Enthusiasm Wins! 5 Ways to Show It & 4 Killer Mistakes | 31 May 2024 | 00:27:13 | |
How to demonstrate enthusiasm during a job interview. Finding a balance between not showing enough and showing too much enthusiasm.
How to Show Enthusiasm
Do your homework on the company: research their mission, values, products, culture, and recent projects.
Bring materials to the interview: portfolio, presentations on how you can contribute to the specific role, or ideas tailored to the company's needs.
Verbally express your interest: mention specific aspects of the job and company that excite you and explain why.
Follow up thoughtfully: send a thank-you email or handwritten note reiterating your interest and qualifications.
Demonstrate that you are a continuous learner: highlight relevant courses, certifications, conferences, or workshops you've completed.
Mistakes to Avoid
Desperation: avoid phrases like "I'll take anything" or "I need this job so badly."
Obsession: don't send constant emails or calls after the interview.
Overly aggressive selling: focus on how your skills can benefit the company, not just getting the job.
Lack of focus: be clear about why you're excited about the role and how your skills can help the company.

A Day in the Life of an Inhouse Recruiter
The Recruiter's Workday:

Be reachable: Specify phone availability in your application.
Answer your phone: Especially during business hours.
Be prepared for interviews: Offer specific times for interviews and set reminders.
Engage during phone interviews: Keep answers concise, interesting, and offer to share more later.

| How Hard to Push for an Offer? Creative Ways to Receive Offers. Listener Q&A | 26 Mar 2024 | 00:14:12 | |
Should you push to get a job offer?
How to stand out in a job application: Matthew advises personalizing your outreach by researching the company and contacting the hiring manager directly (via email or LinkedIn) with a concise message highlighting your qualifications and how you can benefit the company.
Cold contacting for software engineering or machine learning positions: Sending a well-crafted email or LinkedIn message to the hiring manager is acceptable, but avoid phone calls. Focus on your skills and the value you bring.
Following up on applications: If you haven't heard back after applying, a brief email reiterating your candidacy is okay. Don't call for updates.
The episode also features success stories from listeners who used the podcast's advice to land jobs!

From your previous job (e.g., leadership recognized by a past boss)
Personal strength applicable to work (e.g., perseverance)
Bonus Strength: Align with the company culture (e.g., volunteer for a cause they support).
Common Mistakes to Avoid:

Generic responses ("hard worker")
Weak examples
Disguised weaknesses ("perfectionist")
Bragging or lack of confidence
Irrelevant strengths (high school sports stats)
