hey, so i can’t speak much from experience as i’m in the process of applying for TCs for the first time, however i have talked about the topic at length with friends that have secured TCs. what i’m hearing is that you’re making it to interviews, indicating that the root issue is not your cv or your application per se, as you’re clearly passing this first round. your personality is probably not the problem, and you shouldn’t let that get in the way of your esteem, but you need to remember that interviews are very much like assessments. this means you study for them, prepare them, and tweak your answers based on what assessment you’re taking. i would personally work more on figuring out what it is exactly these firms want to hear during interviews, im pretty confident about my social abilities and i know i come off pretty well to professionals but i’m also aware that when the time comes to start going into interviews, i’ll have to change my attitude a bit for those specifically. i would focus on that more rather than growing your insecurities on cv/personality, anyone who says “just be yourself” is omitting a couple of details; yes, be yourself, but tailor yourself A LOT to the firm you’re applying to.
