Effective, accessible, practical advice that works!
I’m a very anxious interviewee, and I feel like I’m never quite sure what employers want to hear. I have what interviewers in professional fields tend to call an ‘interesting’ job history, and I don’t have a degree, so applying for professional jobs with just a few years of Admin experience is nerve-wracking. I started watching Don’s videos after getting the opportunity to interview for a unicorn dream job. It paid almost 1.5 times I was making, the team was hands-on and employee-focused, great benefits, a scope I’m familiar with and like- but with new challenges and room to grow. I watched Don’s videos for weeks. I watched them before bed, first thing when I woke up, I even stood my phone up in the shower to keep his advice and mindset fresh in my head, and I constructed all of my interview notes around his advice. I had an interview panel that went from potential peers all the way up to the CEO, and I felt confident acknowledging where I’d need to grow to fit the role, while really selling what I brought to the organization. I wasn’t just extended a job offer, I was told that my unique background and perspective were seen as an asset to the team. As someone with a GED and a history in service roles, that’s not something I ever expected to hear from a tech company. I love my job, I love Don’s approach and way of speaking, and I’m so thankful that I found his videos. I’m staying subscribed even though I’m not looking for new employment because there’s always a friend or family member looking for a job and being able to share this information is so valuable. I really wasn’t sure if this was just some kind of advertising thing or what- but it’s real, practical advice to present yourself in the best possible way to employers. You still have to do the work, but he provides everything you need to do it well and stand out. I’d give more than five stars if I could.
