I’ve interviewed a lot of people in my time at Paragon. Here are three questions I’ve found truly insightful when hiring: 1. Tell us why you’re here. (It’s basic, but essential). ✅ This is an opportunity to share your career journey and your growth through a compelling and concise story. Why did you make the moves you did, and what did you learn from each? Why does it make sense that you’re here today? I'm also looking here for preparation and communication. ❌ Don’t just read off your resume, I've already done that. Don’t take more than three minutes or you'll lose the room🥱 2. Give me an example of feedback you’ve received and what you did with it. ✅ This shows me coachability and humility. Has feedback and coaching had an impact on you? Can you reflect on feedback in a positive light? I want to see a candidate’s willingness to be grow, humility, and a drive to implement what feedback they received. ❌ If you can’t think of anything or you share feedback you didn’t agree with, that’s a red flag. 3. Tell me something about yourself that’s not on your resume. ✅ I love seeing a candidate light up about something - it’s humanizing, authentic, and shows beyond your professional polished side. I want to see your energy! ❌ Don’t fake your answer or think there's a “right” answer. Inauthenticity is obvious. We’ve hired four new team members in the last year, and we’re still going!
These are great! Mine is “tell me your framework for doing the right thing, or share a real life example (or both)”
Great stuff! Another cool one is “Describe your ideal boss.” This IDs proper fit like few others do.
Love these and use them as well. Also.. great handwriting
Love that these aren’t all competency based and super open-ended, giving the interviewer the chance to really shine Trista Engel. No wonder you’ve got a superb team there!
1). Initially, to become an Human Resource employee, however, abuse by my supervisor destroyed that dream and nothing happened to her. 2). I suggested that Social Workers and Human Service Aide, should speak to an in-house (or in county) Mental Health Representative, from the Mental Health Department. 3). I'm a lot smarter than I look, but I wear my heart on my sleeve and am a big fan of Fairplay. Nice guys, infact DUE finish last!!!

I have more than two decades experience helping pharmaceutical, medical device, biologics and life science clients comply with US drug, biological and medical device law.
2moTrista Engel & Jessica Markowitz l now offer a humorous look at what NOT to say: 1. Tell us why you’re here. You had an ad on LinkedIn 2. Give me an example of feedback you’ve received and what you did with it. I ignored it. 3. Tell me something about yourself that’s not on your resume. I like to skip work to go fishing and play golf. 🤣🤣🤣
