How and Why the WAHM Should Interview Herself
Having faith in your service or product is not the only thing in life.
You need to have faith in yourself, as a worker.
You need to know, if you would hire yourself to do the job.
Sounds like a simple answer.
It is not.
Interviewing yourself can expose holes in your resume that you may have never noticed.
Polish your sales figures by polishing your resume, with yourself.
Get it in Writing! No, you do not need to mail a letter to yourself or sign a contract to yourself.
But there is a little bit of role-play involved.
You must try to imagine you are looking to get a job done.
Who would you want to give your money to? Write down a set of questions that you would like answered by someone you would hire to do your job.
Do not answer them, just yet.
When you have finished, set the list aside for a few days.
You will have a more honest mind-set, when you do set down to answer the questions.
Be honest! We all know that when you cheat, you are cheating no one but yourself.
So stick to your guns and answer the questions honestly.
You will notice that as you answer these questions, there may be some holes in your resume.
This will also help you to determine if you should expand your education, take a class or seminar.
Another tip is to take note of the items on your resume that you are most proud of.
Have you forgotten to share these accomplishments with your customers? Take Action! Have an honest conversation with yourself.
Would you want to hire yourself to do the job? Why or why not? What could you do to boost your WAHM resume? Have you been resting on your past successes too much? Are there local seminars or classes you could take to sharpen your skills? Is your industry or trade reading up to date? What about your networking contacts? Have you called them lately? Again, you need more than just faith in your product to sell in this competitive world of entrepreneurs.
You need to have faith in your own abilities.
This will help you in your efforts, as you will have a newfound confidence that your competition probably does not have.
