Our thoughts on Google's new FREE interv...

Interview Boss
About this episode

In case you missed it, Google has released a new free interview warm up tool that allows you to 'practice key questions, get insight about your answers, and get more comfortable interviewing.' But is it endorsed by Sarah & Emma?

In this week’s episode, we discuss the tools strengths, weaknesses, and who is most likely to benefit (hint - certain industries will find it MUCH more valuable)!

🏀 Shoot Your Shot - Shoutout to Colton who bought us 10 coffees! "Thank you for all your support through the interview process. I stumbled upon your profile because I was trying to find a way not to feel guilty when going to the gym instead of applying to jobs. Sometimes I just didn't have the strength to keep applying to jobs but I could turn on your podcast so I could keep moving the needle forward. What I didn't realise is that over the months of listening to just about every possible episode, I was ready for the interview process and could go forward confidently. I just got done with 6 rounds of interviews for one job and am one of the final two being considered for the position. I know how to follow up, knew what to listen to before and after, how decisions are made behind the scenes, the psychology tips and tricks, dealing with the mental anguish of the job search. I'm so grateful for you and just know that every time I was feeling anxious or in my head, your podcast brought me back to the present. Thank you, Colton."
