Career Confidential: A Job Interview Is ...

NYU Stern Professor Suzy Welch
About this episode

Welcome to a special “Career Confidential” episode of Becoming You! 

Listen in this week as host Suzy Welch, aided and abetted by her no-holds-barred colleague and mentee, Dustin Liu, turns the pod’s spotlight on job success—particularly, winning the interview game. But that’s not all. Dustin reveals his secret list of career lessons he has learned from Suzy over the past year, and runs them by her for reaction, explanation, and of course, a story or two about where they came from and why they really matter. (Spoiler alert: job interviews are definitely not what they seem.) This fast and seriously funny episode is not to be missed if you’re interested in supercharging your growth, and don’t mind a bit of “hmm, really?” along the way.

Take Becoming You IRL at the Three-Day Becoming You Intensive this October.
