"We're looking for your story when you're providing your answers to behavioral based interview questions and really emphasizing the situation, the tasks that you took throughout that process, really providing great detail around the action, and then ultimately sharing the results of that situation"

"What I look for in a resume is a clean format where your career is presented in a timely, organized fashion; you're referencing exactly what you do and what your company does, and you're quantifying everything you do by your successes."

"I regularly have hiring managers tell me that they picked a specific candidate out of a group because that candidate was the only one to send a thank you note. It might just be the reason you get moved to the next round."
