In my lifetime, I’ve prepared, oh, conservatively, about a bajillion job candidates for their interviews.
Most are so worried about the wrong stuff.
Most prepare backwards.
They think What questions will I be asked? I need to come up with a good answer for [insert the dumb ones here about disagreements and conflicts and weaknesses, etc.].
Uh, no. As is, heck to the no!
It’s not about what the interviewer asks.
It’s about what the interviewer needs to know—so they hire YOU!
Today, you’re in luck because you opened this newsletter which leads to a video on my YouTube Channel that teaches THE VERY BEST way to prepare for ANY job interview.
After you watch this, you’ll wonder why you ever prepared differently.
You’ll also start seeing magical results…

Who doesn’t want to sound more accomplished?
Amiright?!?!
More accomplished = more attractive to potential employers.
I’m not talkin’ “accomplished “in the “overqualified” sorta way.
I wouldn’t run that risk.
I’m talkin’ “accomplished” in the I’m-smarter, more-knowledgeable, performed-more-repetitions, solved-more-problems, achieved-more-goals sorta way!
If you sound more accomplished, you have a better chance of getting more too. True story.
But, what if you’re, well, junior?
Or, what if you’ve been doing the same job for a long time?
Or, don’t have a “big” title?
Or, interviewing for a job that manages lots of people? And you haven’t, like, ever?
For the bajillionith time, “Don’t worry!”
Your Houdini of a career coach has you covered.
Join me today for 10 nifty ways to punch up your resume and job interview stories to sound more accomplished, senior, and all-around desirable!

It hurts me when I see people make a mistake.
It practically kills me when I see them repeating—on purpose—the same mistake.
I’ve made lots of mistakes, so please don’t think I think I’m a know-it-all.
I don’t judge anyone because they made different mistakes than I did.
We’re all different and have walked different paths, experienced different things, and built different perspectives.
I like to think, however, that age and experience have helped me test different theories and note the results.
Today, I’m sharing 9 unconventional pieces of wisdom, tactics, and habits I’ve learned through my testing of life.
It’s a gamut from building skills to solving problems to dealing with people I’ve learned from running all those tests and making those aforementioned mistakes.
A real rainbow of goodness.
I hope you enjoy it…

You become unhappy.
Then you’re sitting around the house all day annoying everyone.
Ha ha. You get the picture.
Maybe not that bad, but can we at least agree you in a great career and fully employed making lots of dough is better than you not employed making no money?
K? K.

I’ve got 10 big tips to help you ignite your results.
They’re not your run-of-the-mill-tips and you can’t get them anywhere else.
I know this to be true because I’m the only person on the planet who wrote The Zebra Code: A Step-By-Step Guide to Mastering Career Skills That Make You a Standout Professional.

It IS about career development and getting what you want out of life!
But it’s about skillsets that are not a luxury, but an all-out requirement for success, in your job search or any endeavor.
Would it help if you could focus to stay locked in?
Were self-aware to know what to look for, how to evaluate whether it fits, and make great career decisions?
Good habits?
Effectively plan and run your (job-search) day?
Have more confidence?
Become more empathetic and use it to your advantage in interviews?
Uh, network more effectively? HELLO!
Communicate better?
Be more persuasive, well, in everything from cover letters to interview answers?
Improve your personal storytelling?
How ‘bout using a creative formula to generate more job-search and employer possibilities?
Yeah! No fib. I covered a lot.

I spent more time coming up with complete title of The Zebra Code: A Step-By-Step Guide to Mastering Career Skills That Make You a Standout Professional than writing the entire book.
7 months for the title.
6 months to write the entire book (really 5, because I spent a month polishing).
True story.
Why?
I wanted to get in…
So, it shakes out…
Don’t even get me started on the number of sleepless nights I had thinking about the cover design.
Wondering what gives with my analogy?
Seconds baby. Seconds. As in S-E-C-O-N-D-S.
That’s what YOU have to make the impression.
You don’t actually think you get your entire resume to make an impression???
Uh, heck to the NO.
Your career profile, the executive summary of your ENTIRE professional life if you will, is your billboard.
It’s your title and subtitle.
It’s your ONE and BEST chance to get them excited.
To entice them to review the rest of your glorious resume which substantiates everything you CLAIMED in your career profile.
Just like The Zebra Code.
I enticed you with the title and subtitle.
Then, fulfilled my promise on the 352 pages that sit inside the cover.
You get 2 paragraphs and then the remaining 1.875 pages to make good on your promise.
It happens in seconds.
Or 2 paragraphs.

I’ve changed careers twice, which basically means I’ve got it down to a science.
It’s absolutely brutal.
You deserve the truth.
How brutal?
This picture of my office popped up in my “memories” on my phone.
It's from August 25, 2015, a shade over 9 years ago.
3:43 in the AM.
I was knocking off for the evening so I could catch an hour or two of shut-eye before Harley or Ginger started licking my face as if it was their food bowl.
That’s a whopping 55 (calendar) days after I decided to “change careers” and become a career coach in addition to an executive recruiter.
Of course, the long-term plan was to drive the jumbo jet on the runway until liftoff when I could go “all in” on the career coaching thing.
I was on the runway for…let’s see…carry the seven…a mere 5 years.
Hang on. Hang on. Hang on. Lemme go get Andy Sunshine.
Okay, he’s back.
I’d do it all over again.
Anything worthwhile will take a bit of time. Fine, maybe a lot.
But it’s incredibly rewarding IF and ONLY IF you truly want it badly enough.
Ever consider making a change?
I like to say, “This world needs more of you, not less. There are people who need you to do what you ache to do. That’s the part of you, you need to give them. That’s the part of you I’d love to see. That’s the part of you the world wants.” (From The Zebra Code, Chapter 21, My Gift to Find Your Gift)
Maybe you like the way things are going and are on the right path.
Maybe you’ve thought What if?
Either way, today, I have 5 steps I’d suggest if you want to make that change!

What would you give to be happier in your job? In your office? In your career?
Would you give 25 minutes and 52 seconds?
If you’re willing to do just that, you’ll learn exactly what I’d do.
Warning: I’m not going to say anything to you like smile, have a better attitude, or blah blah blah. I wouldn’t insult you with that trite stuff.
I’ll get you focused on and building the six “deliverables” I’d create and have “at the ready” so I’d feel happier about my situation!

Have you been struggling to get your career to the next level?
Maybe you’re awesome at your trade.
Maybe you are well networked in your company.
Mayyyybe you’re even the go-to person that seems to be able to fix everyone’s “problems.”
So, why is awesome you not getting awesomely ahead?
It’s one thing to be great at your job.
It’s entirely another to be all-out spectacular in your career.
As a consultant, recruiter, business owner, and now career coach, I’ve long known skill stacking is what makes you powerful.
It’s the mind-bending formula where 1+1=4 and 1+1+1=10.
Truly exponential in nature.
You might hear me say, “The more “layers” you have, the more desirable you’ll be to an employer.”
I speak of how many boxes you check when it comes to their silly job descriptions.
This is part of the equation.
Now, skill stacking isn’t just about how you match.
It’s about how much impact you’ll have.
At this point, you might be thinking I’m using my 9 semesters of higher math to make up new formulas.
But have you ever heard of someone’s pay rising and rising until all of sudden their compensation seems to be in a new stratosphere?
They likely skill stacked.
Today, I’m sharing my skill stacking concepts and how I’ve built my career using these techniques.
Give it try and note the awesome results!

Ever been snookered by a fake job?
I mean, if you know you have?
You might have been hoodwinked and didn’t even know it.
Perhaps you applied and silence.
I glanced over a survey from Resume Builder very recently (not a site I recommend, but they ran the survey so what the hey?).
A few key findings...
Their rationale…
Hiring managers say fake job postings led to boosted revenue, morale, and productivity and alleviate employee workload concerns. They indicate “company growth” as one of the top reasons behind fake job posting strategy.
Sure.
So, you know these fakers are out there.
Now, how can you spot them and what can you do about it?

Asking questions in a job interview is so important.
I know I’m stating the obvious, but just because something is obvious doesn’t mean people know how to do it—well!
Today, I’m gonna give you a triple-header of high-quality questions.
But, because I’m me and you’re you and you deserve more, I’m not just going to tell you what questions to ask.
Just because you ask a question and get an answer doesn’t mean you got THE correct information.
Or, know HOW to use the information.
So, for completeness’ sake, I’ll tell you what to ask, what information you need to make sure the interviewer provides, and how to use the information to score better and get paid more.

Have you ever heard me speak of THE GREAT 8?!?!
As in, like, how could you not have unless this is the first email you’ve ever opened from me?
The GREAT 8 are the major accomplishments employers shoot for.
Don’t sprain your brain: 1) revenue generation, 2) market awareness, 3) customer attraction, 4) customer happiness, 5) corporate growth, 6) employee happiness, 7) cost reduction, 8) process efficiency.
K? K.
You, as an employee, work on something that contributes to one or more of these 8 areas.
Otherwise, you don’t have a job.
Whether you’re putting together your résumé or explaining a story in a job interview, you need to highlight how you’ve contributed to these areas.
Today, I’m loading up your cannon with tons of fire powder to illustrate exactly how you contributed to these goals.
You’ll get ~ 40 key employment performance metrics that coincide with these Great 8 areas.
You might even be surprised how awesome you are when we get done with this one!

Have you ever been in a position where you were asked to sketch out your dream role?
Perhaps during an interview, or maybe in a casual informational chat, where it seemed like the company was just intrigued by your background and potential?
Imagine this: You walk into an interview, or maybe even a discussion with your boss, and instead of being handed a job description or assignment, you're asked, "What can you create for us?"
Then, you whip out a crystal ball that not only predicts but also molds your future at the company.
Nice, eh?
Or, scary because you’re not sure what to do?
Either way, I have you covered today on exactly how to create your own role.

Are you exhausted from trying to figure out the best way to say what you want to say in a job interview?
As in, which method do I use?
Why do I have to speak interview-speak instead of normal, human-speak?
Why is the company telling me I have to use the STAR technique?
What the hey is the STAR technique?
Wait, now that I think of it, Coach Andy tells me that approach isn’t as good as his CAAR method.
Exhausting, I know.
You know who isn’t exhausted?
Me.
I never tire of thinking up creative ways to help you better understand storytelling concepts and unlock your potential—especially when it comes to selling yourself.

Do you wish your LinkedIn inbox was flooded with messages from recruiters fawning all over you?
Would you settle for a few each week?
Seeing nothing?
Well, you need to know what drives them to you.
I might not know how to get the YouTube algorithm to send people my way, but I do know how recruiters filter their LinkedIn searches.
I know that because we had corporate and executive recruiters show us their dashboards and walk us through their processes as we built our latest rendition of the milewalk Academy® LinkedIn Workshop.
I also know what job seekers can do to get those filters to choose them and that’s what I’m sharing today.

You're not alone.
Most job seekers experience the deafening silence of applicant trashing systems that seem to swallow resumes whole.

It’s a revolution in how you connect with potential employers.
Let’s get you in control of this process.
Let’s get you to bypass the frustrating barriers of ATS’s, AI’s, and so on.
Let’s make real, human connections that get your resume noticed—and responded to.

Today, you get a podcast on The Job Interview Formula Guaranteed to Get You Hired (CAAR).
It’s titled that because, well, it’s an actual formula, which, if you use it, I pinky swear, you’ll get hired.
It literally, IMHO, is one of, if not, THE, very best podcasts I’ve created on how to answer questions—like ANY question—in a job interview.
I cover the emotional and feelings aspect of it.
I cover the step-by-step tactics.
And encore with a very-detailed example to drive it home so it registers with zero distortion!
Where might I learn something like this?
Well, I coach, individually, approximately 500 people each year. Every year. Most of whom need interview coaching from me.
To boot, I’ve been studying interviewing since 2004 as an executive recruiter.
That’s excluding the week-long behavioral interview coaching and roleplaying I endured way back in 1990. (1-9-9-0 just so you know that what’s a typo.)
You’ll also need to disregard all the hiring I did up until 2004.
Even so, I’m confident that leaves me with enough experience based on whatever’s left over.
Did I mention I wrote a book on this?
Can we agree I’ve had lots of practice?
Good!
Now, enjoy…

Is it détente or mutual destruction?
I’m not sure, but AI will change the game for employers and employees, especially in the hiring process.
Someone asked me a few weeks ago about my thoughts on the recent Wall Street Journal article titled You’re Fighting AI with AI: Bots Are Breaking the Hiring Process.
Here’s what I had to say.
I hope, as always, it positions YOU best to succeed!

Here’s a line straight out of The Zebra Code…
“Always remember, your success, in anything, will have more to do with where you place your attention than your ability.”
There are no truer words when it comes to your job search.
Most people think their history matters. (Not really.)
Others think their skills matter. (Not if you keep talking about them.)
Others, the even sillier ones, think keywords matter. (Dear Lordy.)
Let’s talk philosophy today.
Some tactics too.
Let’s toss in a dash of focus. Energy.
With a splash of metaphysics.
Dang.
How ‘bout I just whip you up a three-courser of a job search, interview, and salary negotiation.
Your table is ready…

Are you getting paid what you’re worth?
That was actually a trick question because there’s absolutely no way for you to know exactly what you’re worth.
You’re worth is dependent on what someone else is willing to pay for you at this exact moment in time.
You are like a stock, a house, or anything else whose value is determined by someone else’s desires, needs, challenges, and other factors which you know very little about.
Even though your daily worth is a mystery, there are ways to determine what a potential employer feels you are worth—today.
Wouldn’t you know it? I have a video to help you better understand how to discover this.
Inside, you’ll hear me say funny stuff like, “Salary negotiation is not a transactional event. You do not win a salary negotiation. What you do… is from the time you send a cover letter and a resume or apply online or boss hunt […] from that moment with everything you do and everything you say and everything you don’t do and everything you don’t say until the time you counter their job offer […] that’s the negotiation.”
Gimme 17 minutes and 43 seconds of your life. It’ll be worth it. Pun totally intended.
