Doing Research and Writing Good Questions
Let’s move on to ingredients #4 and #5.
#4 Do your research on each employer’s business model + pain points (i.e. where you fit)
You want your employer to want you. The easiest way for you to do that is to find out how you can solve a problem they have. Look deep into their business model and thoroughly understand what they do so that you can find somewhere to value-add to their business.
#5 Devise specific questions that show that you’ve done your research
Using the right questions can show the employer that you really care about their company and that you can be a good asset to their operations. Structure your questions around confirming that you have the right idea and understanding about the company’s processes and business.
To end this topic, spend some time looking at the business model of the employer of your choice. Identify 2-3 gaps where your skills might be needed, and prepare a list of questions that you can use in a conversation with someone from the company.
