Universe.jobs is a service of DirectEmployers Association - a nonprofit HR consortium of leading global employers formed to improve labor market efficiency through the sharing of best practices, research and the development of technology.

Chances are, if you joined the universe.jobs community, you are actively or passively searching for a job or professional development. Representatives from our Member companies are full of useful tips and advice so we wanted to capture that in a way to help our community. Periodically we will share short videos of employers giving quick snippets of advice to help you land your next job or get your foot in the door.

Our fourth installment in the Advice from a Recruiter series comes from Lance Sapera of 24 Hour Fitness. He recommends being prepared for an interview to not only share your skills and abilities, but ALSO, to be able to share real life examples of how you've demonstrated dependability, leadership, initiative and other key strengths.

Do you have any tips to share about interviewing? Post them below!
