Hi, I hope you see this! I had been trying for 11 months to get a job, interview after interview and not landing anything was heartbreaking! Luckily I came across your content and developed my toolbox and prepped on the Par method (star always felt redundant to me and long winded).  Well Iโ€™m happy to report I landed a job and started onboarding today! Thank you so much for your content it literally just made the biggest impact on my life. I went from making $52k with TWO jobs to over $70k with ONE job landing a job in a Saas company! I canโ€™t thank you enough!

In an alternate universe, I wonder what would happen if the interviewers were as straightforward as possible--without any subliminal attempts to find out who you "really" are--AND the interviewees were just totally honest, focusing more on truly answering the question rather than how their answer comes across.

Crazy, I know.

PAR/CAR Method + Story Toolbox = I got the job! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

@heidij70

Wow, so true. I actually just had a TEAMS interview last week and found the Interviewer with a glazed over look a few times as I was trying to tell those STAR stories. I did catch it and shortened the stories closer to what you describe as the CAR method. Honestly I feel most interviewers can assess your capabilities pretty quickly without the rambling.๐Ÿ˜‰

@Succexxyy

I saw this info from you from an older video and used it and I actually got an offer from not just one, but two jobs. I was interviewing for two different positions, and I got two offers at the end of the interview. It was the first time I got to actually choose a job. Thank you!

@brendacurrie358

Yesterday in an interview with Ritz Carlton they required me to use the STAR formula - it was the mst formal interview. They were rigid. Your wisdom helped me get thru this painful interview.  They were very black and white - thank you for your help !!! Brilliant advice ๐Ÿ’ช๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ

@Tylervp

I am so happy to say that watching your videos helped me land my first ever internship with a multi-national company! I had two interviews, the first was with a college recruiter and the second was with a panel of 3 people from the department I applied for. Assuming I did well on the panel, I was supposed to have a third one-on-one interview with a hiring manager afterwards, but today I got a call from the senior recruiter who told me that the last panel liked me so much that they decided to immediately send me an offer! Working for this company is going to be the first step towards my career, and I cannot thank you enough for letting me take advantage of the opportunity.

@Zeke.Junior

The PAR method is a game changer.  Between that and using your story tool box I got a GS-12 government position!  Thank you so much for the content.

@angelicaosusky1821

I love this advice! I always thought STAR was too lengthy but thatโ€™s what EVERYONE preached. CAR method will be my new method. Thanks for simplifying and helping us, Madeline!

@mobeenzoalfaro169

This woman is smart, she is right when you tell a long story,you tend to forget on what you say and you could rumble. Which I know it could happen to me

@Thechanterramarie

I totally stand by this method! I always think of it like a case study. I good case study shares the challenge, solution, and result. I also find it helpful to look at job opportunities this way. Whatโ€™s the companyโ€™s core challenge? What solution are they looking for from you? And what results will your work yield, or in other words, what is the benefit of what you will provide for this company? Knowing this helps me understand the big picture when Iโ€™m formulating my answers for interview questions because I have a clear idea of what I bring to the table. Thatโ€™s why I love this method. It builds up your confidence when you can clearly state how you can help an organization move their mission forward.

@allets218

I binged watched a lot of your videos and I got the job! Plus getting over $4 more! Thank you โค๐Ÿ˜Š

@Merrybandoruffians

Oh man, this is so much easier. I tripped up in a final interview and lost a really good opportunity because I confused myself trying to remember the STAR method. I always seem to forget what the stupid letters stand for and end up lost in the weeds ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿพโ€โ™€๏ธ ๐Ÿ˜‚

CAR is way more logical. Thanks for the tip!

@Jordzter91

Short, sharp, and shiny love it

@callmesg_16

Hi, Madeline!!
I don't know if you'll see this, but your videos have helped me so much. Since last year, I have landed interviews only for the employers to ghost me, or I would receive one of those generated emails saying I didn't make it to the interview process. I just landed a job offer today thanks to all of your tips and advice! Thank you so so much!

@johnwilson8482

I actually like this three-part model. It basically combines the S and T portions of the STAR method. (Although STAR sounds cooler than CAR or PAR, haha).

@Jaki812

Came at the perfect time, I have a 3rd interview tomorrow and Iโ€™m expecting a lot of behavior related questions. Thank you!

@faabihakhan

Woah. Loved this CAR formula. It seems simple and more impactful!

@dbuster44

I have always used STP's. They seem to make the most sense for me in every situation. STP (Situation, Target, Proposal).

@ZZ-jh9kq

Hi Madeline!!!  I wanted to thank you for guiding me through the interview process!  I am set to graduate university this week and became a job shopper.  I've gone 3/3 with tailoring my resume to each position, developing my story tool box, and practicing tons of behavioral interview questions.  Needless to say, SPIKING the "tell me about yourself" pitch and asking questions specific to each interviewer!  You helped me land the best job in the market for an entry level chemist & I am so excited and grateful!  They needed braces to close the gap! ๐Ÿ˜‚
Thank you again for all your amazing content.  I'm primed to salsa into negotiations leaving no dollar behind!
