WHAT HIRING MANAGERS WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU
More honesty. What you like and don’t like. Give your opinions! Everyone’s excellent at something. What are
you excellent at? Show your depth of knowledge. What interests you about the job. How you will bring your passion to the job. Want to see you’re excited about what you
can do for them. Ask them tough questions. 11

WHY DID YOU LEAVE YOUR COMPANY?
You didn’t see eye to eye with your boss (who was a jerk).
You weren’t thriving there.
“I left the company because I wasn’t challenged.
I work best in fast paced environments and am looking for an opportunity to work on big projects where I can use the full range of my leadership and project mgmt skills.”
27

WHY DID YOU LEAVE YOUR COMPANY? You were managed out because you believe new management
didn’t like you. You don’t really know why.
“I had a brilliant career at the company for 10 years. A new Division head was brought in from another firm. She restructured our group and I was out. I don’t think I’ll ever understand the reasons behind their decision.
The environment has drastically changed over there. I’m not sure it would have continued to be a good fit for me anyway.
I’m attracted to this company because you’re strategically poised to grow. At the same time you have some significant supply chain issues. My expertise is troubleshooting supply chains. I can start resolving your issues immediately. It would be exciting for me to play an important role in the firm’s growth.”

WHY HAVE YOU BEEN OUT OF WORK FOR X YEARS?
“It hasn’t been by choice! I wouldn’t say I haven’t been working. Looking for a job is almost a full time job!
I get bored when I’m not productive. Getting involved in volunteering opportunities has kept me sharp and active.
My passion is tackling and solving large scale operations challenges. That’s why this oppty is attractive to me. You need someone who can quickly assess your situation, develop a change plan and get buy in from stakeholders. I will be able to do that.”
