There’s a lot of “Looking for a job” energy in the world right now—but interviewing can be a nerve-racking experience. Folks on both sides of the equation want something—reliable gig, reliable colleague—and that can give way to performativity, misrepresentation, and hidden agendas. Because when an interview process doesn’t incentivize authenticity, negative patterns can pop off real quick. In this episode, Aaron and Rodney offer guidance on building better interviews, including:
The importance for interviewees to self-assess skills already mastered and skills yet learned
How both sides of the interviewing equation can create space for more curiosity and nuance
The lies we tell ourselves about resumes and cover letters
Why designing interviews that simulate real-life work are so critical
The top four questions Aaron asks himself as an interviewer
