S2E3: The Secrets of Interviews
We’ve all been interviewed at some point. Even if you haven’t experienced a formal interview, someone along the line has strategically interviewed you for desired information. That’s because our answers to an interview question are rarely the actual focus. The true focus is your behaviors surrounding your answer. In this episode, we pull back the curtain to some tips and tricks of the interview process. Whether you are the interviewer or the interviewee, these perspectives can improve your game.

Ask yourself, if nobody knew about it, would you still do it? To find out more or to subscribe to our Tuesday Tip-of-the-Week check us out at www.APG.team or contact us at [email protected].
