SE Women on the Move Affinity Group

Feb. 19, 2019 Women on the Move Meeting

Storytelling to nail your interview or boost your career

Every single day, you bring all of you to work. When a company hires you, it doesn’t just hire what you can do for them; it hires your past, your present, and your future—your story. In an interview, you are a storyteller. The hiring manager processes your story totally differently than the list of facts and data written in your resume. Know your story and tell your story honestly and strategically with the skill of a master storyteller. Emily will give you tips for knowing your story and how to tell it in an interview. Because you have a story, and it matters.
