On the other side…

This week I finally got to sit on the other side of that interview table. I have been through so many interviews over the past year, and it’s always been a stressful experience for me. This week I was allowed to be an interviewer for a change, a big difference from being the one put on the spot.
Nonetheless, there are many things you can learn from this experience.
I had been told, it seemed a million times, that I was just not right for the position, or someone else was a better candidate.
Being an interviewer I saw that no one person was better than anyone else, some people just fit better. I realized that the times I had been turned down it was because it wasn’t a fit. Now that I’ve got a job that I love, I realize how important fit is. I wouldn’t have this job now, if I had gotten one of those other ones I was turned down for. You have to remember when you’re interviewing there are numerous reason why you might not get a position, and these are reasons that may have absolutely nothing to do with your performance in the interview. Don’t feel overwhelmed if you get turned down, don’t feel like everyone else in the world must be more qualified than you. I guarantee the person who gets the job over you, probably isn’t this amazing, super employee, they are probably a lot like you.
The point is don’t lose faith. You will get hired for that right job, it may not be the first one, but if you are right for the job that will show to the interviewer. It will show in your confidence, your speech, and just the way you interview. Finding that job is just up to you.
