In today's episode, I share ten common interview mistakes that you want to avoid during your interviews. One of the biggest mistakes job seekers make is to present the person they believe the company wants, rather than showing up authentically. A lack of authenticity typically does not help you get the job, but even if you were to get the job, either yourself or your employer will soon realize that you are not a good fit.

In today's episode I share 10 questions that every job seeker needs to be asking in an interview. Many people enter into interviews focused on how they can impress their interviewer. This is the right emphasis but not the only thing to focus on. By asking really smart strategic questions, you can get to understand a company more and ensure that you are not making decisions on the role or company based on assumptions. Plus great questions are also a way to demonstrate enthusiasm for a role.

US congress woman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez AOC) recently made a video that went viral when she responded to what she deemed to be a "faux apology" from her fellow member of the US congress, Ted Yoho. You can see the video here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LI4ueUtkRQ0
As I watched this video, it made me realize that although one of the key advantages to AOC’s self advocacy have been her high media profile and the impact that comes with this, it has also left her as a target from those who have long inhabited the establishment.
You can draw parallels between this incident and the workplace in general, which I believe is one of the reasons why Diversity & Inclusion initiatives typically flutter.
Despite the risks associated with self advocacy, the rewards ultimately outweigh the risks.
In this episode, I also go on to provide 10 tips to becoming a better self advocate.
