Manage episode 525621216 series 3442417
What if the secret to interview success was hidden in a quick, 60-second conversation? This week’s roundtable explores how mastering your elevator pitch can completely transform how well you interview.
But what the heck is an Elevator Pitch? It is a short, clear statement about who you are and what you bring to the table. Business leaders use elevator pitches to sell ideas. But job seekers can apply the same practice to “sell” their value in interviews.
For example, have you ever stumbled through “Tell me about yourself”? Or struggled to explain why you’re interested in a role or why you’ve been out of work for a few months? In this episode, our team breaks down how a polished elevator pitch can turn those tricky questions into confident, memorable moments.
But what makes a great elevator pitch? How short should it really be? And how do you keep it authentic without sounding robotic?
We share practical tips and creative techniques, from structuring a 30-second micro story to highlighting your “why” for choosing a particular career or industry. You will also find out why introverts might actually have the edge when it comes to delivering focused, high-impact answers.
Most importantly, you will learn why preparation matters, how to manage interview nerves, and how to stay in control of the conversation from start to finish.
So, are you ready to craft an elevator pitch that helps you stand out and ace your next interview? Tune in now to hear the full conversation and get inspired to write your own.
