036 | Hard Skills vs. Soft Skills - What are they, and how you're assessed on them during interviews

Do you have the right soft skills for the job? What about hard skills, do you have those? Soft? Hard? Whaaaa? What exactly are hard and soft skills?

In today's episode I define the difference between hard skills and soft skills, how companies measure whether or not you have them, and some ways on how to showcase you do when interviewing!

A lot of what I share in today's show are things I learned from a breakout session I attended during the HR Star Conference in San Francisco. It was presented by Michelle Reed from SkillSurvey and she ROCKED IT. I took 3 pages of notes during this breakout! Hope you enjoy, thanks so much for listening.

002 | Interviewing – How to prepare, Skills to highlight, Answering effectively, & Being confident

Prepare smart for your next interview! No, it doesn't come down to whether or not you made the hiring managers laugh, although a key thing that goes thru my mind, in this episode I will give you tangible steps on how to prepare those few days before you head onsite for your face to face interviews. Just as important as resumes are to your personal brand, the next step of meeting face to face is your personal brand coming to LIFE. Let's make it count.
