Job interviews can be scary and stressful. But they’re nothing compared to what comes after: the waiting.
My coaching clients routinely find that the post-interview waiting period is the most agonizing part of the interview process. Beforehand at least they could put their nervous energy into preparing. But afterward? What can we do?

It’s important to bottle up the impulsiveness that comes after having a job interview and channel the emotions productively.
