You walk into an interview.
You practiced answers in your head.
They hit you with:
โSo, tell me about yourself.โ
Your brain blanks.
You ramble through your life story, fast-forward and rewind three times, and toss in โfast-paced environmentโ for good measure.
Walking out?
โWhat did I even say?โ
๐ง Thatโs cognitive overload + stress amnesia.
๐ฏ MJW Takeaway:
We script and rehearse story-based answers:
Beginning: Problem
Middle: Action
End: Result
Short, punchy, and replay-able in their heads when theyโre comparing candidates later.
No babbling. No โuhhhh.โ Just clear narrative that lands.
