Interview Boss
About this episode

Picture this: you've aced the initial interview rounds, feeling pretty confident about your chances, when they hit you with the curveball - a presentation for the next round. You might be thinking, "Uh-oh, presentations aren't really my thing," or "What on earth am I supposed to talk about?" 

In this week’s episode, Sarah and Emma break down the various types of presentations you might encounter in job interviews, why employers use them, and what they're looking for in your performance. We'll debunk some presentation myths and set the stage for you to feel genuinely confident in your preparation.

🏀 Shoot Your Shot - Shoutout to Bori who bought us FIVE coffees! “Hello Emma & Sarah Thank you SO much for your invaluable advice through this podcast. You two have now officially helped both me and my partner land our dream jobs! I discovered your podcast over a year ago, just before moving to Australia, when I was in the process of remotely interviewing for a job in Sydney. I’ve listened to all of the episodes and thanks to all your wisdom, practical tips and positive energy I secured a job even before landing in Aus. This was almost a year ago, so a very overdue thank you! Then about 1 month ago my partner decided to look for a new job, and I immediately got him hooked on your podcast too. He got 2 interviews lined up by a recruiter within a few days of updating his CV, so we started listening to your podcast episodes non-stop (in the car, at home, on our commutes) and all your advice, tips and jokes were once again invaluable during this process. Finding and securing a job can be such a stressful experience, particularly due to all the unknowns and uncertainty, but your insights helped both of us through it every step of the way. I told my partner about the episode to play right before the actual interview and he didn’t realise it was going to be a short one, and ended up playing it on repeat 5-6 times before the interview to keep that inspiration and motivation up! Enjoy your coffees from us. Every bit deserved, and more. Thanks again.”
