Look for repeating patterns, look for where they say the same thing, but they use different words. These are all repeating patterns of what they're interested in and this is the focus. This shows what they're most interested in. So, if they talk about leadership, coaching, mentorship, hiring; all those things are tied to management and leadership. So, you definitely want to focus on those areas and you want to have experience statements and examples ready to talk about, so you can show them how relevant you are. I mean, this job description that you have, this is a blueprint for what they're looking for. Don't just glance at it and look at the title and say, “Oh, it says Marketing Director. I think I'd like that.” Now, you've got to go through it in detail. Like I said, it's a blueprint. It's exactly what they are looking for in somebody and what they want to accomplish. So, spend a good deal of time of your 60 Minutes, spend 10 going over the job description and focusing on all their key areas that are important to them. Because that's why they're interviewing somebody in the first place. I mean, they've got a problem. They're looking for somebody to solve it. Their problems are identified and just laid out in that job description. And they're just hoping someone like you is going to come along and say, “Well, you know, I think I can do all this stuff.” But you know what? Just saying you can do all that stuff, that's not good enough. You have to show them that you can do this. I mean, anybody can go in there and say, “Oh, yeah, I can do that and I can do that and I can do that.” That doesn't fly. You have to come up with real stories and examples that talk about your experiences, that give them the feeling, the sense that you can actually do what they're looking for and you have to be able to talk intelligently about it. Now, speaking of talking intelligent; like I said, you got that job description. Highlight key words that they use and then use those same words and then you talk to them. So, when you're in the interview and you're talking, make sure you reference specifically the technologies, the keywords, the buzzwords, whatever it is, reference those in the interview.And that's going to make you sound more relevant because you're using their words from their job description. And they're going to say, like, “Wow, you know, this guy, he really sounds like the person we're looking for. He looks like us. He sounds like us. He talks like us. He must be one of us.” Very, very important. So, many people ignore that step. So, next thing; demonstrate that you understand their needs, because that is one of the most important thing. Like I said, they need to solve problems. That's why they're hiring somebody. So, you want to go in there and show them that you understand their needs. Now, maybe they don't put all the detail in the job description about what they need and in stopping their problems. So, during the interview, ask them questions like, “Hey, what are some of the biggest problems that you guys see with this this project?” or “Who were some of the biggest competitors that are stealing away your business and what are your plans to deal with that?” Ask them some questions, to discover their problems. And then when you know what the problems are, you can say, “Hey, you know what? I got an idea for you. Have you tried this” or “Have you tried that?”
