You're in a job interview. How do you share your personal values without jeopardizing your professionalism?
Reflecting on my several interviews over the past two years, I’ve found a few things to be true. Both in the U.S. and U.K. Most employers right now want to fit you into a box. This is defined by the open positions they are hiring for. Regardless of your ideas and forward-thinking you’ve done about the position and/or company. There is a bias/prejudice in hiring (recruitment) practices. Companies aren’t giving fair consideration for all that apply. They are looking for responses in your interview to disqualify you. This includes disability and diversity. However, regardless of these issues you still need to define your personal values and what you can bring to the role. Think of it as practice toward that future job you deserve.

No. There probably shouldn't be a 'love tax'. But I wish there was one for being an insufferable prick. https://lnkd.in/gbpeurrU
