Summary

Check out the podcast on Macslist here: (https://www.macslist.org/?post_type=podcasts&p=16069&preview=true)  Did you know that when you walk into an interview room, you are in the driver’s seat? If you struggle to know what to say during interviews, Find Your Dream Job guest Tanya Maldonado suggests teaching. You teach the employer who you are, what you have to offer, and how you have impacted previous companies. Tanya also says you should prepare questions for them, to get to know more about the company, and so that your answers can address those issues. Your words matter, so use them carefully, sparingly, and to become a known entity to the employer and no longer a stranger.   About Our Guest: Tanya Maldonado is a career specialist at Portland Community College.  Resources in This Episode: Connect with Tanya on LinkedIn.
