Job Interview One-Sheeter - Your Personal Cliffs Notes

Note from Jenny: My approach to preparing for interviews is to treat them like preparing for finals. I create a bullet-ized one-sheeter about myself with short buzz-words and answers to key potential questions that I can quickly glance down at (if necessary) during job interviews. 9 times out of 10, just preparing the one-sheeter will lock these ideas into your brain so you don't even have to look down - but it's nice to have the Cliffs Notes with you just in case. This template has nine areas that were helpful to me - feel free to add/edit for what you feel is most useful for you.
| Five Key Points: The top 3-5 things I want the interviewer to remember about me. Highlight key strengths. | This is why I rock: Stories/examples that show I'm a rockstar and uniquely suited for this position! | Areas for Development: Strategic answers to that dreaded "tell me about your weaknesses" question. |
| Brilliant Ideas: Based on what I know, my suggestions for improvement or future direction of team. | My overall work/team philosophy: How I generally approach challenges & opportunities, and what excites me. | Questions I have: About the role, interviewer, company, future growth opportunities, etc. |
| My Short/Long Term Goals: How this role fits well in my career plans. Why do I want THIS position? What makes me a good fit? | Specific Challenges: What are some specific challenges I've faced, and how did I overcome them? | Other Notes: |
