They're the one with the pressure.
And there should be no question that they ask you about who you are that you can't answer.
So remember, you have one job when you go into any interview, and that's to make that person feel that they're going to be making a big mistake if they don't choose you.
And how can you make them feel that way?
When you sit in that chair, you need to understand the key success factors of that job.
What are the things that it takes to be exceptional?
And if you've done your homework, you got a pretty good idea of what the key success factors are for that role.
And when you're telling your story, you need to tell your story where that becomes pretty obvious that you can deliver on those things.
And here's the thing, most people get deterred
When they look at a job description that they want to apply for and they see that you need five years of experience or 10 years or you need a master's in this.
Whenever you're reading a job description that says required, I want you to read preferred.
because there is always an exception to the rule.
And when you sit in that interview chair and you can communicate that you know what an A looks like in that role, now you're going to, number one, you've already crossed one hurdle.
You already told the person you know what it takes to do a great job.
And then two, you need to talk about why you're so confident that you can deliver on that.
And you will have greater than a 75% chance of getting that role.
Now, the they around whether or not they're going to promote me, one of the things you have to always remember is that it's not generally a singular decision with respect to whether or not you're going to get promoted.
So one of the things that's important when you're in an environment is to make sure that you're building a lot of relationships so that you lower the probability that only one person can stand in your way.
And if there happens to be one person that is confounding you and that's in your way, then the strategy that I've always found effective is make that person the outlier.
If everybody else is saying, oh, Mel is fabulous.
