As a recruitment consultant, I cannot overstate the importance of addressing any doubts the interviewer may have about your suitability for the role ๐ฑ๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐ป๐ด the interview. There is an important question I coach the professionals I’m representing to ask;
โ๐๐ผ ๐๐ผ๐ ๐ต๐ฎ๐๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ป๐ ๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ผ๐๐ ๐บ๐ ๐๐๐ถ๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ถ๐น๐ถ๐๐ ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฝ๐ผ๐๐ถ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป?โ
This gives you the opportunity to directly address any potential concerns the interviewer may about your suitability for the role. Often concerns arise from a wrong assumption, misunderstanding, or lack of information. This can be easily cleared up and addressed during the interview.
Once the interview is over, it can often be difficult to address any potential concerns as a decision may have already been made.
Asking this question not only shows that you are willing to address any potential weak spots, but it also shows that you are confident enough to discuss them. This type of impression can be invaluable to potential employers and can go a long way to ensuring a positive outcome at interview.
