Ever felt like a rockstar in your senior executive role, only to trip over a technical interview question? Yeah, it happens to the best of us. You know your stuff, but somehow you end up feeling like you're back in that entry-level role.
Here's the thing, technical interviews are designed to test specifics, not your general leadership awesomeness. Crazy, right? But don't worry, you've got this.
Take my buddy Mike, for example. Mike's been a C-suite exec for years. His resume? Killer. But his technical interviews were more like horror movies. He’d stare at the whiteboard, frozen, while interviewers waited for that 'aha' moment that never came.
His secret turnaround? Interview preparation. No joke. Mike started using the interview coach at JobEase. He nailed down those elusive specifics and practiced till he knew them backward and forward.
It's not just about brushing up on the basics but understanding how these technical skills impact your bigger goals. Articulate this, and you're golden.
