Getting Hired Using Improv

Preparing for a job interview these days almost feels like a job in itself. It can be daunting. And often we are the ones getting in our own way of getting job we want. We leave interviews feeling like we just got caught ourselves rambling about who knows what. We feel as if we didn't properly present ourselves and who we are. We wonder if the person interviewing us will even remember our name.

Basic improv practices can help us sharpen the edges in presenting ourselves to employers that will help you get your point across in a specific, engaging, and human way that reveals the best version of yourself. When we do this, we change the interview into a collaborative conversation.

You are the biggest selling piece in landing a job. It's time to unleash...YOU.
