π― Hired!
Mission 2 Β· Unit 2 β You found the job you actually want. Now: become the candidate who gets it.
Your briefing
You've seen the ad. It's your dream job. Somebody else wants it too β probably several somebodies. Getting from "interested" to "hired" takes several things most people get wrong: a messy CV, a generic cover letter, an awkward phone call, no idea what to say to the other nervous candidates in the waiting room β and then the interview itself.
This mission fixes all of that. Your guiding question:
"What does it actually take to go from 'interested' to 'hired'?"
This is the feeling you're working towards
Getting the call that says you got it.
