Summary

From the Voice Mailbag - The "Interview Arc". The first interview is excellent, but then later interviews go downhill. In the episode, I walk through the priorities for recruiters for interviews 1 through 3 and what they are focused on. Then, I provide a strategy for YOU to inject energy and information about yourself in each interview to create an exciting experience for the company.
