Episode Synopsis
Chapter 3 from It Depends: Writing on Technology Leadership 2012-2022
In this episode, we discuss my experience building an exercise to help me better understand what is important to me in a role or company and then how I used the results to help prepare for job interviews. I also discuss some of the mistakes people make when interviewing for roles in a downturn with how they present themselves in job interviews. If you're currently looking for a job, or thing you will in the future (we all will), this episode will be helpful.
