Turning a Job Interview Around
Ever feel like an interview is going south? Don't panic! Just because an interview isn't going as planned doesn’t mean you can’t employ a little skill to turn it all around. Strategic thinking and adaptability can make a significant difference. Remember, it's not over until it's over!
Consider this advice: Prepare thoroughly, listen attentively, and tailor your responses to the interviewer's needs. Even if you stumble, a positive attitude and willingness to learn can leave a lasting impression.
