When youre interviewing for a job, youre already in the door because the company thinks youre qualified.
At that point, you dont need to keep proving basic qualifications.
Its time to move on to why youre uniquely better than the other candidates.
This is the part where you want to stand out.
Dont just repeat basic things like how much you know Microsoft Word in the interview.
Maybe your marketing mindset will make you an asset to the tech team.
Those additional facets of your candidacy will help build out the stories you tell.
Maybe it’s possible for you to do something that most other candidates probably cant do.
Maybe you have experience that other candidates dont.
Focus on your unique strengths and what you’re able to bring to the table.
