The emotional and mental aspects of being a founder — covering how to navigate challenges and maintain resilience in the startup journey.
At the end of an [music] interview, there's always that moment where they say, "Do you have any questions for us?" And what I've seen sitting on the other side of the table is people either ask a question they don't really have cuz they feel like they're supposed to um or they say, "No, [music] I don't have any questions." And it's just a missed opportunity. And so, this one I have to give credit to my co-founder. [music] Uh he came up with And this is one of the things I did not anticipate I got [music] the most positive responses like I got the job because of this question type of the thing. And the question is, "Okay, so let's say that this interview went really well and a year from now I got the job and you're looking back. What would I have had to have done in order for you to feel like it was a good decision? Like what things will I have had to have done in that in that role?" And
so, typically the person goes, "Hmm, I like that. That's a really good question." And it does a handful of things. One, you've gotten them to imagine the interview going really well and them hiring you, right? And then second, they're going to lay out for you exactly what you need to do in the role to excel. And that is something that every boss [music] wants. It's like, "I want you interested in knowing what I need from you in order to do a good job."
