How often have you heard the advice “Fake it till you make it.” Self-help books are full of this since the seventies π€¦ββοΈ. The idea is that false bravado in interviews makes you look ready to take on the world and crack the interview. π±βπ
***WRONG***
βοΈ Authentic confidence always comes from your competence in – Your Work – Your Preparedness for the Interview
βοΈ You should never feel the need to have a facade to inflate or embellish your skills. Instead, with some introspection and assessment, bring out your highest skills and learn to shine the torch on them.
βοΈ As you sharpen your focus –> your ability to strategize & plan for success β¬οΈ –> your self worth β¬οΈ –> your confidence β¬οΈ.
βοΈ This is fail-proof.
