Top 4 Takeaways:

\\n

1. Sometimes you take a Greyhound bus to an interview while on vacation with your friends and change into your new suit in a Starbucks bathroom. If you are willing to take the opportunity when it presents itself - which is usually on your employer\\u2019s time, not yours - the doors of your career will open real wide.

\\n

2. Put the work into the actual interview. Take your interview to the next level by putting in the hard work to get the job. Be prepared to show people that areas in your resume that may be perceived as your gaps are things you can learn or that you have already taught yourself.

\\n

3. Be more direct. Don\\u2019t expend your mental and physical energy working around an issue or uncomfortable conversation. Get right to it, close the topic, end a meeting on time, and get on with your priorities.

\\n

4. Be concise. Be bold. Believe in yourself and Be human.
