Shift from Pitching to Problem-Solving

Here’s the reality: great interviews are about more than just selling yourself.

The most successful candidates approach interviews as collaborative problem-solving sessions. Instead of rattling off a list of achievements, they focus on understanding the problem the company is trying to solve with the new hire. By asking insightful questions—such as what challenges the role is meant to address and what previous solutions have failed—they demonstrate their ability to think critically and work together toward a solution.

The interview isn’t just a test of your skills; it’s an opportunity to show how you collaborate and solve real-time issues. Next time you're in an interview, shift the focus from why you to how we can solve this together.
