About
You can't script your way through a great interview.
Most job seekers try. They rehearse answers, memorize stories, and chase the "perfect" response only to walk away feeling like they didn't truly show who they are.
That's the problem.
Great interviews aren't about performance. They're about self-awareness.
In The Self-Aware Interview, Carolyn Illman draws on 15+ years of experience as a hiring leader, Amazon Bar Raiser, and career coach to reveal what actually works in today's interview landscape. Instead of teaching you what to say, she shows you how to understand why you say it-and how that changes everything.
Using the Enneagram as a practical framework, you'll discover how your personality patterns influence:
• How you prepare (and overprepare)
• The stories you choose, and the ones you avoid
• Your communication style under pressure
• The way you respond to behavioral interview questions
• Your decision-making during the hiring process
Whether you're actively job searching, navigating a career transition, or leading hiring decisions, this book will help you move beyond guesswork and into interviews that actually reflect who you are and what you bring.
Because the strongest candidate isn't the most polished. They are the most self-aware.
