You got this! Confidence is a very very VERY important factor in these interviews. You’ve been chosen for a reason, they already find you intriguing. Be able to articulate things you’ve done in previous jobs and the value you brought to the orgs.

First rounds are usually a “Get to know you” type of vibe though. so practice your Elevator pitch — this helps me to remember the achievements I’m proud of in case behavioral questions are also asked. Have stories of how you solved problems, made something better, achieved xyz. I encourage you to also look up interview questions pertaining to that specific role.

Lastly! Be ready to answer why you, why them, and why this role. Can’t wait for your success story! Congratulations in advance 🎉

Hey team! So I was laid off from my SDR position about a week ago. A couple months back, I had an offer for a BDR position that I ended up turning down but I really liked and connected with the manager. Is it worth it to reach out? I applied to other positions in the same company. What about reaching out to previous co workers at a different company? Not sure how to navigate this… please help. Also I’m sorry if this is the wrong bowl to post in.
