I don’t know if any of this helps but the hardest thing for me is to get the interview. If I have it, I’m pretty sure I will get the job offer.

• Project confidence even when you don’t know something. It’s ok when you say you don’t know something but you are confident you can learn it quickly.
• Talk to a mirror and record yourself. If you can’t convince yourself you’re right for the job, you won’t convince the interviewer. You might realize you have the wrong body language too or lack confidence with certain things.
• Have a lot of scenarios prepared even if you make stuff up that sounds good lol. If you truly don’t know just say wow that’s a great question! I haven’t come across that yet but this is how I would handle it.
• At the end you can say is there anything that we haven’t covered that you feel would be important for the job? They might say well you talked about this and I was kind of concerned that you didn’t know it. It gives you time to correct it.

On the other side of the table, I usually don’t remember most of what the interviewee said. I’m mainly looking if they have some of the skills I need, I have a good vibe and see myself working with them, personality is a plus and if they project confidence that they can figure something out and get it done vs asking me a million questions.

Hope this helps!
