Trust Your Inner Voice During the Interview
The interview stage serves two purposes: to sell yourself and to obtain an impression of the work environment. Many job seekers tend to focus only on selling themselves. True, the job search process is competitive, but once you take on the job, you’ll be stuck with it… unless you decide to resign later on… What does this mean? Unlike the Olympics, winning is not always good.
In simple terms, you can win and yet be a loser. Why? Because you may win something you didn’t want. Experts tell us to trust our inner voice. If your gut feeling tells you that the job is not right or there is something bothering you, it is your duty to look into it. Don’t look for any job. Look for a job you will truly enjoy and one that will last. Don’t always trust what recruiters tell you. They might tell you that the group is friendly and that the hours are flexible, but when you attend the interview, see for yourself. See how people interact and how the interviewer addresses you. These are all very important hints. Even if your mind is in denial, oftentimes your body will process all this information and will produce that gut feeling/ warning that tells you “slow down.” Listen to your inner voice.
