How to Ace an Interview
So you’ve landed an interview for a job. Congrats! If you’re thinking, “now comes the hard part,” I have good news: you’ve actually already finished the difficult portion of the application process. When conducting interviews, employers aren’t looking for anyone and everyone. They have read through your resume and credentials and have hand-selected you to speak with in person to further confirm their impression that you’re a good fit for the job. When people think about getting hired in relation to their competition, they often compare experience and credentials. While having an awesome resume is definitely helpful, what someone has on paper doesn’t always translate to that person getting the job over everyone else. Often what it comes down to is whether or not that person is a good fit for the company: that is, will the person get along well with the team, and do they agree with what the organization stands for? This is where the interview comes in.

Do we have what it takes to do this on our own? If you are anything like me, I want to say yes to all of these questions. Realistically, I can’t say that I can say yes to all these questions.

Why Being Nervous Is Good
I stood behind the curtain, waiting to go on stage. This was new territory for me. Not necessarily the going on stage part, I'd done my fair share of public speaking. Audiences don't frighten me, nor does presenting in front of crowds. But what I was actually there to present - the thing itself - was totally new for me.

Behind the Velvet Curtain
To most of the world, the thought of acting professionally is a luxury gig. There are awards shows, fancy clothes, way too expensive mansions, and juicy tabloids. But, unfortunately, the reality of the desirable career isn’t really desirable at all. With an unemployment rate of over 26.1 percent according to 24/7 Wall St., it seems that many of our rising stars are truly falling financially.
