Landing Point

Candidates… Can you confidently answer this in an interview? ➡️ “What are you looking for in your next role?” As an Internal Recruiter at Landing Point, Hannah O'Connor asks this question in nearly every conversation she has with candidates. It’s more than just a standard interview prompt; it’s an opportunity to understand what truly motivates a candidate and to gauge whether their goals align with the role and the organization. When answering this, be clear and upfront about your priorities, goals, and what you value in your next role. This helps ensure the right fit for BOTH you and the employer. #InterviewTips #JobSearch #CareerAdvancement

👉 The best hire on paper isn’t always the one who makes the biggest impact. More and more, we’re seeing soft skills like empathy, organization, intellectual curiosity, and decision-making quietly drive long-term success. Dylan Sullivan, Managing Director on our Accounting & Finance team, advises hiring managers to look beyond the resume and focus on these four soft skills throughout the hiring process. #SoftSkills #IntellectualCuriosity #BeyondTheResume

Candidates… Can you confidently answer this in an interview? ➡️ “Why are you looking to leave your current role?” When answering, honesty matters. But so does how you frame your time at your current firm. Daniela Posillico, Senior Associate on our Accounting & Finance team, advises shifting the focus from what you don’t like about your current role to the growth opportunities you’re seeking. Highlight new responsibilities, exposure to different areas, or ways to further develop your skills. Hiring managers want to hear about your future goals and ambitions, not a list of past frustrations. Answering this thoughtfully shows that you’re proactive, forward-thinking, and ready to contribute in a meaningful way. #InterviewTips #CareerGrowth #RecruitingInsights

Candidates… Can you confidently answer this in an interview? ➡️ “Walk me through your resume.” Even if the interviewer doesn’t ask this question directly, you’ll still end up answering it throughout your conversation. And you shouldn't need to look at your actual resume while discussing it. Emma McGrath, Director on our Accounting & Finance team, shares that preparation is key: ✅ Know who your clients are and what they do ✅ Understand their AUM size (if applicable) ✅ Be ready to explain what you do day-to-day, clearly and confidently Keep it concise, but make sure your story gives the hiring manager a clear picture of your impact and expertise. #InterviewPrep #CareerAdvice #LandingPoint

💡The offer stage is one of the biggest decisions a hiring manager makes in the interview process...and it's also the time where hesitation can derail the process. Carlo Coumoutsos, Managing Partner at Landing Point, often hears clients say: "I love the candidate but want to see one more just in case." That instinct is understandable, but not only does it slow the process, it can quietly signal uncertainty to the candidate. There will always be a “what if someone better comes along?” thought, but the most successful hiring managers push past that hesitation. They trust their process and move decisively, because great candidates are likely to be scooped up by other firms that get to the offer quickly and confidently. #HiringAdvice #DecisiveHiring #ConfidenceInCandidates

Candidates… Can you confidently answer this on an interview? ➡️ “Why this job or this firm?” It’s one of the most common and important questions you’ll face in an interview. Your answer is more than just a response—it’s your chance to show genuine interest, thoughtful research, and alignment with both the role and the organization. In Part 1 of our 5-part series, Max Diamond, Director on our Accounting & Finance team, explains how candidates can turn this question into a competitive advantage. Doing your homework (and a little bit of self-reflection) ahead of time will help you answer this question with confidence! #InterviewPrep #CareerTips #InterviewConfidence
