How to suck less at interviewing?
I (25M) graduated with my music ed degree in voice in 2022. I took time out of the job market to work on medically transitioning (ftm - at least enough for my voice to cooperate with me again). I’ve been teaching privately the whole time as well as contracted preschool Kindermusik jobs and a homeschool co-op while working at Starbucks until I felt ready.
I have applied to nearly 40 schools, interviewed at 5 this year, and have never in my four years of interviewing gotten a second round interview. I have been a building sub for about five months because I needed to get out of Starbucks but the insurance isn’t good enough to sustain me.
What are some of your interview tips to try and get some bites? Any advice to make myself more hireable a candidate?
