Going in for an interview I'm not sure I'm qualified for. I would work harder and try harder than anyone else. How do I find the confidence before the interview to know I'm worthy?

Sometimes I question my qualifications before an interview, but am always surprised at how much I know when they start asking questions.

Sounds cheesy but you'll find it within. The only way to make them believe you'll be good at the job is if YOU believe it yourself. Good luck!

Don't be unsure; honestly, trying hard is really important, and letting them know you are enthusiastic about the job counts bigly. You know what you have accomplished, and what you are capable of, and that is all you are responsible for. If they cannot see your merits, more fool they. Being nervous only shows you care, so that is good too. Go there; be impressive; kill it.

Beginning to consider going in house (4th, corp) - I really haven’t thought about what I want, partly because I’m not sure what’s out there/attainable. Is it a bad idea to start by applying to a couple positions that interest me and seeing where that gets me? I’ll of course prep for the interviews but am afraid to burn potential bridges if I ultimately decline because I’m still figuring things out.

So I had been working as medical interpreter up to the early part of this year. Today, during an interview, the Director with whom I was interviewing genuinely urged me to consider pursuing a career as a PA or even attempt to go to medical school. I had considered it in passing before but today was about the third or fourth time that someone had earnestly nudged me in that direction. Has anyone here made such a career pivot before? I love working in healthcare, there’s nothing like it.

It’s hard to trust the partners/leadership when they want us to return to office as being better when we increase offshoring?

Am I mistaken by this viewpoint?
