“Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.” Oprah Winfrey.

In the business world, many people will want to join your team when the company is thriving, experiencing rapid growth, and offering glamorous perks.

However, what you truly need is someone who is willing to stick with the company during challenging times — when budgets are tight, projects get tough, and the future seems uncertain. These are the colleagues who are committed not just to the success and benefits but to the vision and mission of the company and the shared goals and interests of the team.

Looking for great team members that will build for the longer term?

Preparing for a job interview??

Here are some practical ideas to help you prepare:

1. Research the Company
Understand their Mission: Look at the company website, especially the "About Us" section, to understand their goals and values.
Know their Products/Services: Have a clear idea of what the company offers, their target market, and their competitors.
Recent News: Check recent articles, press releases, or social media updates for the latest company news or projects.

2. Understand the Role
Job Description: Review the job listing carefully and make a list of the key responsibilities and required skills.
Match Your Skills: Identify examples from your past experience that demonstrate you have the skills and experience the employer is looking for.

3. Practice Common Interview Questions
Prepare answers for common questions like "Tell me about yourself," "What are your strengths and weaknesses?" or "Where do you see yourself in five years?"
Use the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) to structure answers to behavioural questions.

4. Prepare Questions for the Interviewer
Show your interest in the role and company by preparing thoughtful questions to ask the interviewer. These could be about the company culture, team structure, or specific projects you'd be working on.

5. Plan Your Journey
If the interview is in-person, plan your route and allow extra time to get there so you're not rushed or late.

6. Bring Necessary Materials
Have copies of your CV, a list of references, and any other materials (like a portfolio) that might be relevant for the position.

7. Practice Good Communication Skills
Practice speaking clearly and confidently. Pay attention to your body language: maintain eye contact, smile, and ensure your posture is open and professional.

8. Review Your Online Presence
Ensure your social media profiles are professional or set to private. Consider your LinkedIn profile as part of your resume.

9. Night Before Preparations
Get a good night's sleep before the interview. Decide what you're going to wear (dress appropriately) and gather any materials you need to bring with you.

10. Follow Up
Send a thank-you email within 24 hours of your interview to express your appreciation for the opportunity and reiterate your interest in the position.

We hope this helps!! Go for it!

In the words of the legendary David Ogilvy, “If you hire people who are bigger than you are, we shall become a company of giants.”

To build a great team, it's important to recruit people who can do their role better than you can! You want a team of high performers, who each take responsibility for pushing their area of responsibility forwards. Ideally, you want to be pleasantly surprised by what they bring to the team. You want to be learning from them and as a team be sharpening each other!!

Hiring is the most important people function you have, and most of us aren’t as good at it as we think.

Refocusing your resources on hiring better will have a higher return than almost any training or accountability programme you can develop!

"Leadership is about making others better as a result of your presence and making sure that impact lasts in your absence." - Sheryl Sandberg, Former COO of Meta

Sheryl Sandberg encapsulates what leadership is all about. It's not merely about being in charge or making decisions; it's about inspiring and empowering those around you to achieve their highest potential. 🚀

A great leader leaves a lasting impression, one that continues to inspire and motivate even when they're not present or micromanaging everything! It’s about creating a blueprint and example for effective and owned performance.

We're each navigating our own leadership journeys. It's good to stop and reflect: How are we making those around us better? How can we ensure our impact endures?

Let's strive to be the kind of leaders who leave an indelible mark on the hearts and minds of others. Let's make leadership not just about the role we hold, but about the positive change we foster in other people. ✨
