Interviewing in today’s job market is more challenging than ever due to a combination of increased competition, automated resume screening, and high employer expectations. With the rise of remote work, job postings now attract hundreds—sometimes thousands—of applicants from around the world, making it harder to stand out. Most companies use Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to filter resumes before they reach a human, so your resume must be clear, well-structured, and tailored to the role. Once you land an interview, the pressure doesn’t let up—employers rely heavily on behavioral and situational questions to assess not just your skills, but how you think, communicate, and fit into their team culture. Interviewers also make quick judgments, often within the first few minutes, so candidates need to make a confident, memorable impression early on. In this high-stakes environment, a strong resume is only the beginning; exceptional interview skills—clear communication, impactful storytelling, and strong presence—are what ultimately win the job.
