Why You Failed at that Dream Job Interview

Most people worry about the questions they will get asked during a job interview. However, the following statistics show that it’s not all about the Q & A session:

🌟 70% of interviewees were too trendy or fashionable
🌟 55% were rejected for the way they acted, dressed or walked through the door
🌟 67% of applicant failed to make eye contact with the interviewer
🌟 38% lacked a smile
🌟 33% of applicants had bad posture
🌟 21% of interviewees crossed their arms over their chest
🌟 38% did not get the job due to their overall confidence or quality of voice
🌟 26% were eliminated due to weak handshakes
🌟 47% knew little or nothing about the company

💯 What can we learn from this?
Wearing the right outfit can have a big impact on whether or not you land the job. As nervous as you might feel, you need to act confident, have a firm handshake, keep an open posture and remember to smile. Most importantly? Don’t forget to do your research and come prepared.

At work, long meetings can leave me feeling drained of mental energy. I can’t stand making phone calls and watercooler talk often feels forced. At the end of a long day, I’m more likely to hang out on the couch in PJs with my dog than go to happy hour.

Sound familiar? If so, you’re probably an introvert, too.

We’re not shy, antisocial or lazy. Quite the contrary; introverts make some of the best leaders. But in work environments that reward extroverted behavior, finding our voice can be a challenge. Fortunately, it’s one we can overcome.
