Interview Skills for Athletes

2/14/2020

0 Comments

 
“Be able to articulate in an interview how the rigorous physical and mental demands you faced and the skills you developed as a student-athlete correlate to a certain position. From my experience as corporate counsel, t​he business world is much like the world of sports - fast-paced, challenging, and rewarding. Utilize your unique leadership background to bring folks together and operate on the same team”
 Key points to make in an Interview when talking about your athletic experience:
  1. I am trained to be the hardest worker in the room
  2. I’m tenacious and learn from losing
  3. I don’t make excuses, I find solutions
  4. I excel at time management
  5. I know when to make sacrifices
  6. I don’t take things personally
  7. I am a team player ​
