Attitude vs Alphabet Spaghetti.

Attitude vs Alphabet Spaghetti.

It's attitude and not alphabet spaghetti after your name that counts in job interviews!

This sentiment was echoed by John Cridland - a former director general of the Confederation of British Industry.

He famously said that members "must consider character-building elements of a candidate's CV, rather than just qualifications."

He added that most bosses "do not recruit on subject or qualification" but look for "enthusiasm, creativity and passion." I couldn't have put it better myself.

As we often say to our clients, "Aptitudes are important but it's your attitude that makes the difference!" #proteuscareermanagement #attitude #interviewskills
