#40 Mastering the Interview: What NOT to Do
Manage episode 472600068 series 3554527
Interview can feel like the most nerve-wracking part of competition, but are you making it harder than it needs to be? In this episode, I'm breaking down the biggest don'ts of pageant interview, including outdated strategies that actually increase your nerves and make it harder to connect with judges.
From trying to control the conversation to over-rehearsing responses, I'll explain why these habits don't serve you and what to do instead. Plus, I'm sharing a personal story about a time I was convinced a judge disliked me… only to find out he gave me a perfect score.
If you've ever left an interview thinking, I could have said that better, then you won't want to miss this. And if you're ready to take your interview skills to the next level, sign up for my free March Masterclass on Interview Skills. Link below!
