Current working as a Director of Sales and Marketing at a large hotel chain.

I have 8 years of work experience. Last 5 years of experience in sitecore development projects. Prior to that I was more into content management only. I feel I do not have enough experience in sitecore development for switching companies as sitecore is vast to cover all grounds. Can anyone please suggest what I should do to be more confident and prepare for interviews?

Recently I got invited to an interview with a decent growing company. I work in Executive Search and I am thinking of switching to in-house recruiting. During the conversation the recruiter made some weird assumptions about my current job. The interview took longer than expected and I feel like I have not delivered well. Was I wrong to expect in-house recruiter to understand the differences and similarities between in-house-recruiting, professional search and retained executive search?

I am working to secure an opportunity at a large corporation.

I spoke to a few people working in the same function at the company to gain some insight and have applied through a referral link.

I know who the hiring manager is but have yet to connect with them but I am worried my application will get lost in the shuffle.

Would it be fine to reach out to the hiring manager on LinkedIn as my application is under review or should I just wait it out?

I recently had an interview with the hiring manager and they did 95% of the talking. It was the weirdest interview I’ve ever had. I didn’t know whether to interrupt and get a question and some comments in or stay quiet and listen. I couldn’t even gauge how it went. Has this happened to you.?
