Description
Did you feel confident in your last interview? If you didn’t feel confident, your interviewer likely didn’t perceive you as confident. Yet, in the U.S. and many other countries, interviewers prefer confident candidates. It seems to have an intoxicating effect on them, and many of them equate it (for better or for worse) with competence. So, it’s a skill worth learning! Tune into the latest Express to Impress podcast to learn which groups of people struggle most with confidence in interviews. You’ll also learn how you can overcome self-doubt to feel and project confidence in an interview. Ultimately, you'll feel better, increase your interviewer's confidence in you, and land a job offer.
