Even in a job interview, you're still selling because typically in a job interview, they're going to ask you all the questions. And if you just sit there and answer all the questions like everybody else, how do they view you? Like everyone else. There's nothing special about you. So you can answer a few questions and then you might want to ask them a question like, can I ask you something? Sure, go ahead. Like, if I came to work for you guys in this position, what would my training possibly look like? Just so I understand. Oh, it'd look like this. It'd look like this. It'd look like this. Just one little example of how to start getting that interviewer to start qualifying to you. Now you start to stand out. Another way to position is they start talking about an issue they're having in that department. I might say, you know, that's a, that's a big thing. A lot of people have been telling me that have been trying to get me to work for them is that they're having this X, Y, Z problem. What do you feel is actually causing it? It's like you're great. Everybody's trying to get a hold of you. Like everybody's trying to recruit you. That raises your status in the interviewer's mind.
