HOW TO NAIL JOB INTERVIEWS
Apr 13, 2025
STILL GETTING PASSED OVER? USE THIS SIMPLE FRAMEWORK TO FINALLY NAIL YOUR INTERVIEWS
YOU PUT IN THE WORK. SO WHY ARE YOU STILL BEING OVERLOOKED?
You’ve built a solid career. You’ve delivered results, driven initiatives, and built a resume that should speak for itself.
But every time you walk out of an interview, the same feeling hits:
“I should have nailed that.”
You replay your answers in your mind. You second-guess your stories. You wonder if the hiring manager really saw your value.
The truth?
Most interviews aren’t won by the most experienced candidate. They’re won by the one who knows how to connect the dots and tell their story in a way that resonates.
This article is for you if you're ready to stop fumbling through interviews and start turning conversations into offers.
WHY HIGH-PERFORMING PROFESSIONALS STRUGGLE IN INTERVIEWS
You’re not underqualified. You’re just not positioned properly.
If you’re a successful mid-career professional, here’s what you’re likely up against:
- You have a rich career history that’s hard to condense into short, punchy answers.
- You’ve worn many hats, but don’t know which stories are worth sharing.
- You feel pressure to "sound impressive" rather than be authentic.
- You’re navigating burnout, imposter syndrome, or uncertainty about what’s next.
And if you’re trying to shift industries or land a promotion, the challenge only grows.
No wonder your interviews feel more like interrogations than opportunities.
THE HIDDEN COST OF NOT NAILING THE INTERVIEW
Every missed opportunity is more than just a rejection. It chips away at your confidence. It reinforces the fear that maybe you’re not as valuable as you thought.
It creates internal conflict:
- “I’ve done the work—why can’t I talk about it clearly?”
- “Why do I freeze when they ask about my leadership style?”
- “How do I explain this career gap or pivot without sounding unstable?”
As a Fortune 500 Corporate Recruiter, I’ve seen it all and I believe you deserve better. And it starts by learning how to share your story in a way that connects.
INTRODUCING THE STAR METHOD: YOUR INTERVIEW SUPERPOWER
As a Literature major, I've studied countless storytelling frameworks—and the STAR Method stands out as the simplest and most effective way to answer behavioral interview questions with clarity and confidence.
Here’s how it works:
S = Situation — Set the scene. What was the context?
T = Task — What challenge or goal were you facing?
A = Action — What specific steps did you take?
R = Result — What happened? What did you learn? Quantify it if you can.
This method removes the guesswork. It gives structure to your success stories. And it makes your experience easy for hiring managers to understand and appreciate.
REAL TALK: MOST PEOPLE MISUSE THE STAR METHOD
Here’s where most candidates go wrong:
- They ramble in the "Situation" and "Task"
- They gloss over the "Action"
- They forget to highlight the "Result"
- They use "we" instead of "I"
But when done accurately, STAR stories become your greatest asset.
That’s why I created something to help you master this.
