Interview confidence
Posted by David Winter in Career success, Effectiveness, Skills and methods, Uncategorized on 26 September 2012
A couple of months back someone asked a very interesting question on Careers Debate about how one expresses and demonstrates confidence in one’s area of expertise at an interview whilst avoiding self-aggrandisement.
Is it just a question of body language and non-verbal communication, or are there other clues that you can give in the way that you talk abut your experiences?
I gave a couple of quick responses at the time, but I thought it would be interesting to add a little more flesh to the bones here.

Regular readers of this blog will know that a recurring theme is the notion of meaning in our working lives. I’m also a big fan of simple models and frameworks to help structure and analyse complex ideas. So, I was excited to discover an article which not only conducted an extensive review of the literature of meaning in work, but which presented a simple way of categorising the various ways in which people find meaning.
