    Best tip I ever got for public speaking that applies hear: Don't memorize your speech, but know your speech. Feel free to change things on the fly and don't rehearse it the exact same way every time.

    I was late for two interviews because of traffic issues I encountered on the way. I would have been there 30 minutes ahead of time otherwise. I called the recruiters and let them know.
    In one case we had a major winter storm overnight, and roads were bad, so they understood. In the other case, someone decided to take a swim in the Chicago River in February and had to be rescued by the fire department. I was only a mile away, but traffic was at a standstill and the cab driver couldn’t take a detour. The recruiter said she had been hearing sirens for the last few hours, so she understood.
    I got both jobs, so I guess they liked me.

    Excellent tips Brian- have been using your tips and insights. Getting interviews no problem just getting the offer has been an issue 😅.
    A few tips that you covered and has been helpful:
    1- do read JD over and over. Write down 4-5 questions
    2- Research the company and write 2-3 questions from that.
    3- Answer your questions with examples from your experience. Be specific.
    4- If you can drive to the location a day before and know where to park etc.
    5- Online- no distractions in the background. Wear colors that look pleasing on camera.
    6- Keep your eyes focused on camera. I screwed up one interview by looking at my second monitor notifications - it gave the impression that perhaps I was looking at answers or something. Even I didn’t like it.
    -7 While waiting for interviews keep reading your own resume, I have found that I can always improve on how I’m listing my skills.
    8- Watch Brian’s videos for tips!
    Well wishes and good luck to everyone 🙏

      @@sakmadik69420 You might not have a work history but do you have an informal work history? work under the table, club roles, school activities/accomplishments, volunteer work, or something to say you're not just doing the bare minimum? You might have to get creative but if you're going for a position with 0 experience necessary, you just have to show some effort. I did lawn care stuff like weed pulling and lawn mowing either for church/ community members and got a few dollars for it. I listed this on my resume long enough to get my first job and once I had gotten to college I dropped it in favor of higher quality work history.
      Lastly it's way better to have multiple interviews then one because you can cherry pick if you put in genuine effort. I'd rather go through 4 different interviews then just 1 because it can make a big difference in career, pay, and work environment.

    If I have to talk extemporaneously in my daily life in/ on the job... if I can't talk "off the cuff" in the interview. Some job search coaches say you need to spit the exact job requirements back at the interviewer (basically saying matching the question to the qualifications), how's that helpful? Lately, I've been trying to see it as a conversation, not a "make or break" type of a thing. I learn a bit about them, they learn a bit about me. I seem to be well spoken... but someone just needs to give me a chance.

      Hello, Jason, My first response is that this sounds shakeup. However, if you are truly considering it, here are several things to consider. This is not a full list, but it may help a bit:
      1. Does this company have anything proprietary that could help them truly compete in their market? This could lead them to be solvent enough to pay salaries at some point.
      2. Is this a sales or biz dev role? If so, it “might” make sense but that alone isn’t enough.
      3. Who are the founders? Do they have experience and traction in their sector?
      4. How well are they funded? And how are they funded-I.e., are they self-funded? Angel? VC?
      5. Can you talk to other employees about their experience and the legitimacy the company?
      6. This may be a legit company and if so, what is their exit strategy? Are they going to sell eventually to someone? Make money for the founders and then close down? Go public?
      As you think on this, also trust your gut feelings, and really assess what you need.
      Wishing you the best with this.

      If you have nothing else going, take it and keep looking. Try and get solid answers on how much of the company you will earn, and for a clause that prevents you from being diluted more than the founders. That back-door dilution is a common scam that's legally perpetrated by companies.
