The 4 Amazing Benefits Of A Mock Interview

Have you ever considered conducting a mock interview as part of your interview prep? No? Here’s why you should…

Job interviews can be stressful and intimidating, especially when you are not prepared. At Work It DAILY, we believe interview prep is one of the most important parts of any job search. Being prepared for an interview can be the difference between landing a new job or having to continue your job search.

There are so many different ways you can prepare for a job interview and one of the best ways is to do a mock interview.

A mock interview, is basically a practice interview. It allows you to test out your skills and practice answering potential questions. It’s the best way to simulate the actual interview process and reduce some stress.

Here are some MAJOR benefits of a mock interview that you’re not going to want to miss out on.

How To Get Interviews In This TOUGH Job Market!

In the video above, J.T. talks about a client she recently worked with who was struggling with their job search. This person never had any problems getting hired in the past, but in todays job market he couldn’t get anyone to call him back.

J.T. took a look at his LinkedIn profile, resume, and cover letter and she immediately knew why he couldn’t land a single job interview. Everything was so out of date!

This client was making themselves out to be the “Jack and Jill of all trades”. He was doing everything to promote and make himself look good. Unfortunately, many times this comes across as desperate and is a major turn off to employers.

Instead, he needed to simplify everything to make it more readable. When you put everything you have ever done on your resume you overwhelm the reader. Instead, it’s better to have a simple approach, so when recruiters look at your resume they give you a call because they want to learn more.

Additionally, his cover letter was boring and was not being used to his advantage. J.T. coached this client to use storytelling to grab the attention of employers.

Small tweaks to your resume/LinkedIn profile and a connection story is all you need to make a huge difference in your job search.

Within TWO WEEKS after updating all of his documents, J.T.’s client received multiple interviews. Someone even said that was the best cover letter they have ever read! If that’s not enough to convince you, we don’t know what it.
