Odds are you’re going to end up hiring the person you feel easiest to talk to and is relatively competent. if you put on a persona you’re selling bs to the person interviewing and not doing yourself any favors when you have to deal with this person more often than your family. Unfortunately it’s usually not the best person for the job because it’s hard to gauge peoples long term behavior and potential. but you’ll get a lot more done working with a like minded individual with potential than a stubborn chosen one

Try to behave like a person that people want to work with. That goes a long way. Good luck!

If you feel a conversation getting awkward, confidently connect with them about something… maybe you like their shoes or are intrigued by something they said earlier and want to dive deeper. Make sure you’re open physically to the conversation (arms not crossed, torso/feet pointed toward the person). Bring warmth and smiles. It’ll be fine! If it’s a new person at work, ask about how they got to where they are today. You’ll surely find some kind of tidbit in there to connect about.

If they're in the room, they're qualified. I just want to know whether we'd both be to happy to spend a significant part of the foreseeable future working together... I also think it's important to understand the answer to that question from both sides so invite their questions. Understand how they think and what their values are based on what they ask. Good luck!

40-60 year old people get laid off daily after 15+ years in an industry and have to restart. You’re too young to even know life’s all about restarting and it’s all relative. Fall in love with the process of learning and it’ll never be scary. You might even end up loving what you pivot too. You’ll be fine.
