15 Ways to Prepare for a Job Interview in 2024

I have been doing a lot of interview coaching this year for friends and colleagues who are moving to their next adventure and here are my top 15 ways to ACE YOUR INTERVIEW. If you want the job, your preparation should start before the first interview and you should put in time and effort to showcase your best attributes. Nearly all hiring managers are looking for candidates that can do the work, show a desire to do the work and will be a good teammate. Your job is to demonstrate that to everyone you meet.  After running this play a dozen times this year, this is my top advice.

How to Find a Job in 2024

How to Find a Job in 2024

I get asked 20X a week for employment help from people who are looking for a new job. Some are experienced job seekers, some are career changers, some are right out of high school or university, but they all have one thing in common. They are looking for my advice for how to find a paying job to further their career.

After helping hundreds of people over the years, I decided to publish an updated version of the 20 Steps to Find a Job in the 21st century. *One note, these guidelines may be slightly different in the new normal of 2021. I think the underlying concepts are sound and still work, but there are usually different ways to solve every problem. 

This is also applicable if you are looking for a job at www.hubspot.com, the company that I have worked for since 2007. HubSpot is a great company because it hires great people, has a defined culture and is doing meaningful work to help people, managers, leaders and companies #growbetter and then scale better.  It is very hard to get a job or internship at HubSpot (statistically harder than admission to MIT or Harvard), but it is possible and follows these general rules and guidelines.

Building A Successful Start Up in 2024

Scaling a business is hard. Over the years, I have helped hundreds of entrepreneurs all over the world grow their businesses. It has always been super fun, exciting & fascinating for me to see the innovative ideas that smart, motivated people work on to create employment and do good work. 

Over that time, I have learned that every entrepreneur is a little bit different in their mission, vision and execution. There are certainly some common success attributes (hard work, good leadership skills, focusing on priorities), but the goal of a good start-up advisor is to help the entrepreneur achieve the goals they set out to achieve when they started the company. 

To that end, we have been circulating this document since 2015. We call it 'How to Create a Successful Start Up in 2021' and it is designed for advisors to discover enough essential information to see if and how we can help companies scale.

If you want our help to scale your business, we will need you to answer these questions.

If you fill them out and email them to me at dan@dantyre.com I will review and schedule time to review and see how we might be able to help.
