How do you get ready for a second interview, especially one that’s scheduled to be an hour long? My first interview was with a recruiter for about 30 minutes and covered things like my personality, how I handle situations, and why I want to work there. They want me to come back in to interview with the execs, and I've never had more than one interview before. I’m a little nervous and not sure what to expect for round two. Any suggestions for how to prepare for a more detailed interview?

Interviewing with more than one hiring manager at a time is not all that different than interviewing with one recruiter. Just remember to be yourself and keep eye contact . The questions they ask you should not be anything crazy or things you cannot handle. Congratulations on making it to the next round.

What you should do - when you have the chance, ask each of them what you as an assistant could do to make their day much easier.

Prep specific examples of your accomplishments that tie into the role. Execs love hearing how you’ve tackled challenges or achieved results. And remember to be confident since your personality got you this far, so lean into it!

Imagine having to go through 7, I feel like a pro now 😂😂 I always prepare for the same kind of questions. What I do like to have prepared is a few different questions for the interviewer.
