You must charm and sell everyone you speak with, no matter how tangential they are to the hiring process.
Interviewing in today’s market entails meeting everybody at a firm, including human resources, the manager, the manager’s manager and that manager’s manager. Then, there's the janitor and the guy that waters the plants.To make a great first impression, you must have a good elevator pitch and slightly tweak it based on whomever you meet. In this instance, one size does not fit all. You can’t be the same person for each of these people.
For example, the human resources representative wants to hire a person who is a good corporate citizen and a cultural fit. The direct hiring manager wants to feel confident that the applicant can rise to the occasion, do a great job and exceed expectations. Meeting with peers calls for you to come across as a friendly, polite and well-mannered person, who everyone can get along with and not be afraid that you will take over their job or make them look bad in front of the boss.
As others are added to the interview schedule, always make sure to come across as a positive, upbeat, motivated and an overall excellent person to collaborate and interact with.
