How to Sound Like an Ultra-Hireable Genius in Job Interviews


There’s no worse hell than job interviews: the 4000 hours of googling the company ahead of time; the pressure to stand out amongst the 10 other candidates they interviewed this week; the practicing your job interview questions with your unimpressed-looking cat; the picking your self-esteem up off the floor after being judged so harshly by your unsupportive cat.
With all that floating around in your head, coming across like a coveted potential hire in a job interview can feel nearly impossible. That’s where this talk comes in!

Talk Outline

This talk will help you show off your best self in your interviews so every company you talk to will be clamouring to put an offer in front of you. We’ll cover:

  • An easy 5-part process for crafting stand-out answers to job interview questions
  • How to figure out what the company actually needs so you can show off the right skills
  • The art of adding business context to your answers so you seem more senior and hireable
  • How to brag about your professional accomplishments so you seem like a talented superstar, not an arrogant blowhard no one wants to work with

The goal of this talk is to help you absolutely dazzle everyone who interviews you, so they’re left asking, “Damn, how do we get her, and how can we pay her more money?”
