“We like you, but…” - Why employers want to see more candidates
Picture this: You nailed the interview, connected with the team, and felt a surge of excitement as the recruiter shared that they loved you. You were already picturing yourself in the role, ready to embrace new challenges and start fresh. But then, they dropped the bombshell - "We like you, but we want to see more candidates." The elation quickly gives way to confusion and doubt. What could they possibly mean?
In this week’s episode, Sarah and Emma break down the ridiculous reasons an employer might say this, and exactly what you can do about it so you come out on top.
