Growth Isn’t Always Comfortable One thing I’ve realized in my career journey is that growth often comes disguised as discomfort. The roles that stretch you, the feedback that challenges you, and the moments you feel uncertain—those are usually the turning points.

This may sound weird but hear me out. I have an interview coming up for a role that I have a strong suspicion is not a good fit for me. So I figure this is a good opportunity to try out some things that I’ve never been brave enough to do before. E.g. try to prioritize making personal connection over demonstrating the fit.

Does anyone draw a complete blank at interviews? From the time they say "So tell me about yourself" I go into fight or flight mode. It as if they're asking me about someone else's life. They say don't try to memorize your answers, but I have no other choice. I sturdy all these stories and intro's about myself and still can't remember. I don't know what to do. I have had at least 4 interviews and at each one I rambled and didn't get the job.
I answer this type of question about a skill/task that I may have a basic knowledge in but would like to develop more in depth skills & how I am doing that. For example, ' I have a basic working knowledge of Excel, however I would like to develop my skills to an advanced level. I am undertaking a number of on-line courses to develop my knowledge. This type of response shows self awareness and that you are proactively undertaking measures to address this.
Being to much of a perfectionist, but your working on it to be able to deliver quickly with only 70% of the information available.
