30 People Share The Moments When They Realized They Didn't Care If They Got Fired From Their Workplace

Earlier, I’d reached out to career coach Jermaine Murray from JupiterHR to have a chat about what to do and what to avoid at your next job interview if you’ve decided that a change in your career is drastically needed. Jermaine said that we should be willing to highlight our accomplishments and boast about them. It doesn’t help us if we’re being overly humble.

"They humble themselves when they need to be boasting. If you understand why the work that you were doing was important and how it impacts your org (project) then you should be explaining that to the interviewer without holding back. How did you go above and beyond to make sure things worked? What creative ways did you come up with?" Jermaine told Bored Panda earlier. "Show off."

According to Jermaine, our body language and tone of voice are “super important” and we need to aim for behavior and a way to present ourselves that tell our future employers that we’re both “confident and capable.”

"If your body language or tone says otherwise, you destroy the perception of your skills. Once that's gone so are your chances of landing the job," he said that how we’re perceived is essential to landing the job in the first place, as well as for long-term success.

"You can teach someone to be a better coder but it's near impossible to teach them how to be a better person. Recruiters will always value personality first, but technical skills are a very close second," Jermaine told Bored Panda.

"Hiring managers keep that in mind and try to make sure candidates they like can perform competently. Different things contribute to this bar that aren't based on the candidate but the organization's internal ability to support and develop someone. Once those two elements are present a hire will happen.”
