the mindset change that you needed to make in order to accomplish that and if

you haven't seen that video then just simply click on the link in the

description box below and you'll be led to that video now when it comes to

communicating with ease this concept goes hand-in-hand with the topic of

feeling comfortable in an interview in order to do well in an interview you

need to be able to communicate in a clear and confident way and so here are

my five tips on how to communicate with ease in your next interview tip number

one know what the employer is looking for before you even go into the

interview knowing what the employer is looking for will help you in your

communication because the two of you you and the employer will be speaking the

same language you'll be able to put the employer at ease because you're at ease

because you fully understand what they are looking for from this position from

the potential employee that they're going to hire now I know what you're

thinking you're probably thinking to yourself okay well how do I know what

the employer is looking for if they haven't even told me what they're

looking for yet well I can tell you that you definitely can learn and figure out

exactly what the employer is looking for if not everything at least the majority

of it by simply reading in between the lines of the job description so you have

to know how to read a Job Description properly and then also know how to do

research on a company learning how to properly read a job description is a key

skill that you as a job candidate needs to have in order to be able to land a

job offer that you're going to be happy with you need to understand why is the

position open what are they looking for from this

role what is the goal of this position and what type of individual do they want

now I'm not going to spend the rest of this video talking about how to read a

job description I actually have resources for you to be able to learn

that so you can check out my free webinar it's my resume mastery workshop

you can just simply take my top-notch resume course which has been proven time

and time again to work successfully for other job candidates other ambitious

professionals like yourself who have successfully used this approach and

landed their dream job offers the links are down below tip number two have a

treasure chest of stories ready to be picked to be able to communicate with

ease you need to have a treasure chest full metaphorically speaking not

physically but a treasure chest full of relevant stories that you are going to

bring up in the interview and these are based on experiences achievements

projects tasks duties assignments that you have performed in the past that

relate to the position that you're interviewing for and you have to be able

to demonstrate what the results were and how you can do it again for them in this

role I've talked about storytelling in other episodes so feel free to click on

my channel to look for those ones but essentially you want to make sure that

your stories follow the right structure just like in a good movie you want to

set up the situation talk about the action steps and talk about the results

that occurred tip number three is to cut your explanations down one way to

communicate with ease in an interview is to make sure that you don't allow

yourself to ramble in the interview whenever you're giving an explanation or

telling a story you want to limit the number of sentences that you speak and

be mindful and make sure that you get to the point quickly and efficiently

otherwise the interview where it may start zoning out and thinking about what

they have to get for dinner tonight tip number four show that you want to help

when you're not at ease you're nervous in an interview it's

likely because you are over analyzing yourself you are overly criticizing

yourself and you are thinking about what the other person is thinking about you

rather than thinking about how can I help him or her the person that's

sitting across the table from me how can I offer them value what can I do or say

to showcase to them that I have the right skills qualifications experience

and knowledge to be able to help them with their open pain point their open

position that they have available the pain points that they're dealing with

and the problems that they need to resolve so when you can shift your focus

away from yourself and on to the other person it'll help you to be able to

communicate with ease you'll be able to tell your stories in a more articulate

way and it helps you to be able to demonstrate to the employer your value

what you can do for them and finally tip number five is to practice in the mirror

back in the day in a past life when I had to go on job interviews this is

exactly what I used to do it's such a classic and effective technique yet I

don't understand why not too many people do it practicing in front of the mirror

helps you to put things in perspective that you're actually talking to another

face I mean in this case it happens to be your own but you're able to control

the things that you say while you're talking so you're giving yourself eye

contact and that helps you to mimic the environment of when you do go into the

interview what you need to do when it comes to giving the right eye contact

telling your stories in a compelling way and you're able to hear yourself out

loud as well so practicing in the mirror is such an effective technique I highly

recommend it definitely practice your answers ahead of time in the mirror

before you go into any interview so there you have it those are my five tips

on how to communicate with ease in the interview now if you're someone who has
