Why do candidates take jobs – only to realize after the fact that the role, company, culture, or hiring manager personality was misrepresented in the
Barry Deutsch's insight:
Most candidates do a terrible job figuring out what the real job is during the interview - only to be surprised after the fact that the real expectations, outcomes, metrics, and KPIs are not what was discussed in the interview. How can there be such a large gap between what the hiring manager says and the candidate perceives is the real job?

"How can you reduce the length of your job search by half: Develop an Effective Job Search Plan"
Barry Deutsch's insight:
Is your job search taking too long? Over 30 years, we've noticed that most management and executive job search candidates screw up their job search, taking 2x-3x longer than necessary to find an outstanding role. One of the problems in conducting an effective job search is to have a rock solid plan in place - most job seekers approach job search on a "willy-nilly" and random basis. Cut the time it takes to find a job search at least in half.

"Are you working for a dysfunctional boss? Life is way too short to put up with an incompetent, toxic, and ineffective boss!"
Barry Deutsch's insight:
The primary reason most people quit their jobs is due to a lack of opportunity = learning, impact, and becoming. The second most common reason is you lose respect for your immediate boss - mercurial, unfair, arbitrary, poor manager and leader, doesn't develop you. Why put up with a dysfunctional boss when there are so many great opportunities waiting for you?

At what point do you cross that proverbial inflection point that you feel your curve of learning, having an impact, becoming something more capable -- begins to decline?
Barry Deutsch's insight:
Most candidates wait too long to make a career move after their curve of learning, impact, and becoming something better has declined dramatically. I know it's painful to conduct a job search - but what's the alternative: stagnation, boredom, lack of career trajectory compared to your peers?

Winning interviews is basically telling great stories that share key traits of success and answer quantifiable questions like dates, KPIs, metrics, outcomes, budgets, people, etc.
