The Best Question to Ask in an Interview
đImagine youâre hosting a holiday party. A few days before the event, your partner asks you, âwhat do you expect me to do before the party?â
đWhile the intentions may have been sincere, the wording of âwhat do you expectâ certainly doesnât portray the image of someone super excited to help you with moving the furniture, setting up chairs, and grocery shopping.
đ€©Instead, suppose they say, âwhat would you like me to ACCOMPLISH before the party?â
đHmmm⊠notice the shift? Arenât you feeling like you have their full support and they are 110% on board with helping you?
đ€Now think about that question everyone likes to ask at the end of a job interview, âwhat do you expect of me in the first 90 days?â Do you feel the same CRINGE?
â Use this script instead to show your excitement about the new position, with an opportunity to demonstrate your totally unique ability to bring immediate value to the position:
đâWhat would you like me to accomplish in the first 90 days?â đ«
