Career decisions don’t come with guarantees.

When you are trying to figure out your next step, it may not be possible to eliminate every risk or know with certainty that you are making the “right” choice.

You can, however, create greater clarity by doing your research:
🔍 Learn more about the roles you are considering
🔍 Talk with people who work in those fields
🔍 Evaluate how the options align with your strengths, interests, values, and priorities
🔍 Consider the practical realities of each path

Sometimes, the greater risk is staying stuck because you are waiting for certainty that may never come.

Being able to do the job and being able to communicate that you can do the job are different skill sets.

Interviewing is a communication skill, and like other skills, it improves with preparation and practice.

Do you know how to identify the most important messages you need to communicate during an interview? Do you know what an Ultimate Results Message is? Do you know how to develop yours?

Don’t just prepare to answer questions. Prepare to communicate your value.

Stop trying to guess every interview question you might be asked.

Instead, develop key value messages you want to communicate during the interview.

The questions will change, but your strategy should remain the same:

Every response is an opportunity to articulate your value!

“Why do you want to work for us?”

It is a common interview question, but do you know what the interviewer really wants to know?
It is a question about fit.

Fit is alignment between you and the organization, and that alignment matters in hiring. When employees experience strong alignment with their organization, it can contribute to greater job satisfaction, stronger performance, and higher retention.

The answer to “Why do you want to work for us?” is your opportunity to demonstrate that you have done more than read the job posting or skim the company website.

🔹What do you know about the organization?
🔹What makes it different?
🔹What does it value?
🔹What challenges is it addressing?
🔹Where is your alignment between you and the company?

A fit proposition brings those pieces together. It articulates research-backed alignment and gives you a strategy for explaining not only why you are interested in the company, but why the connection makes sense and why you are a fit.

Sometimes people ask one question as a way of finding the answer to another.

The other day, I was walking my dogs in the park when a man and woman passed us on the trail.
The woman, who was several steps ahead, asked, “Are you camping here?”
I said no.
A moment later, her walking partner asked, “Does this path lead to the parking lot?”
Ah. That was what they really wanted to know.
The woman assumed that if I were camping there, I would know where the path ended. As it turned out, I walk my dogs at that park frequently, so I knew the answer.
“Yes. Just keep going, and the path will take you to the parking lot.”
He thanked me, and they continued on their way.

The same thing can happen in an interview. Interviewers often ask questions with a larger purpose in mind.

An interviewer may ask, “Tell me about a time you made a mistake,” because they want to know whether you take accountability.

They may ask about a conflict because they are listening for how you communicate and work with others.

They may ask why you want the job because they are trying to determine whether you understand the organization and can explain why you are a fit.

Before you answer, ask yourself: What does the interviewer really want to know?
