🍴 Etiquette Tip Tuesday!

Did you know that good dining etiquette can help you feel more confident during business meals, interviews, and professional networking events?

A few simple reminders:
✔️ Place your napkin on your lap.
✔️ Wait until everyone is served before beginning, when appropriate.
✔️ Keep your phone away and give others your attention.
✔️ Engage in polite, meaningful conversation.

Small details can make a lasting impression! We’re looking forward to putting these skills into practice at our Annual Etiquette Dinner tomorrow.

Which one scares you the most?

🧟 Walking into an interview completely unprepared
👻 Forgetting your interviewer’s name
🕷️ Realizing your resume has a typo AFTER you submit it
💀 Getting asked, “What are your weaknesses?”
😱 Having absolutely NO questions when the interviewer says, “Do you have any questions for me?”

Tell us your biggest career nightmare! 👇

💬 WHAT WOULD YOU SAY?
You're interviewing for your dream internship/job.

The interviewer says:
“Do you have any questions for me?”

😶 Your brain: “Nope. I have absolutely nothing.”

🚨 WRONG ANSWER!

Instead, ask something that shows you're interested:

💡 “What does success look like in this position?”
💡 “What do you enjoy most about working here?”
💡 “What advice would you give someone starting in this field?”

👇 Your turn: What would YOU ask an employer?
