Today, Hilary Clinton is undergoing a very public job interview. How is she proving that she is unquestionably the best candidate for the job? There are several strategies that she uses that you should use in all of your job interviews too:
1. Remember the accomplishments of those interviewing you and congratulate them.
2. Mention shared views and achievements corresponding to your own.
3. Behave like you would in the position for which you are being interviewed. Hilary Clinton is already answering questions as the Secretary of State would.
By using these strategies, Clinton is showing belonging. She is positioning herself as one of them and one who is able to handle the job. By showing herself to be their equal, she is not a supplicant hoping for approval - she already has it.
