Tips to Succeed in an Interview
Meet Sara, a dedicated recruiter at UMMC for over 2.5 years and a recent Recruiter of the Month nominee. Sara’s advice for candidates to help them stand out in an interview:
“Self-aware candidates understand their strengths, acknowledge areas for growth, and can align their skills with the job. Personability helps candidates build rapport and demonstrate they would be a good cultural fit. Together, these qualities show maturity, openness to growth, and the interpersonal skills needed to contribute positively to a team, making a candidate stand out to recruiters and hiring managers alike.”
