The #1 Tip to Win Any Interview

from This Wasn't My Plan · host Ashlee Hayes

Original Air Date: 9/29/25 If you’ve ever walked out of an interview thinking, “I rambled too much…” this episode is for you. After coaching over 2,000 clients, training 8,000+ students in my interview prep course, and helping negotiate more than $20M in offers, I can tell you with full confidence: the #1 mistake that costs people job offers is rambling. In this episode of This Wasn’t My Plan, I’m breaking down: Why rambling happens (hint: it’s not because you’re “bad at interviews”). What research says about nerves, working memory, and communication under pressure. My GTTP framework, Get To The Point, the most powerful tool I teach my clients to land the offer. Real-world examples of how to trim the fluff, stop circling, and deliver answers that actually stick. Simple, practical ways to practice so you show up clear, credible, and memorable in every interview. Because clarity always beats charisma. Your career doesn’t grow because you give the longest answer, it grows because you give the clearest one. 👉 Listen in and learn how to quit rambling and get to the point.
