Interviews for Introverts – How to Gain Confidence and Leverage Your Strengths
2023-08-24 14:00 - 15:00
Job interviews can be stressful for anyone, but introverts may have additional challenges to address and overcome—and we’re here to help.
An introvert’s natural tendency to steer away from talking about themselves and discomfort in large or unfamiliar settings can make it seem that they’re not interested in the job or not confident in their abilities.
However, an introvert’s ability to exceed with listening, thinking, and reflecting are all skills they can use to their advantage in many situations, including interviews! It may not come naturally, but with a little practice, you’ll be impressing the interviewer.
Extroverts and ambiverts, you aren’t forgotten! Many of the tips and resources can be used by anyone while they prepare for an interview, including remote interviews. Attend this webinar for great tips and resources!
Our August webinar series, How to Master the Essentials of Job Interviewing, features this webinar, Interviews for Introverts – How to Gain Confidence and Leverage Your Strengths, as well as the following webinars every Thursday in August at 2 pm ET: Cracking the Confidence Code: How Job Interview Champions Overcome Anxiety with Phoebe Gavin, a Career and Leadership Coach, How To Answer the Most Common Job Interview Questions, Preparing for Remote Job Interviews, and How to Combat Ageism in Your Next Job Interview.
