Job Interview Tips for People with Disabilities

Today, we are discussing job interview tips for people with disabilities, the elevator pitch for job seekers, and general interview advice. Job Counselor Marianne Kozinets at Spinal Cord Injury Ontario is demonstrating how to make a good elevator pitch during a job interview. An effective elevator pitch should be 20-30 seconds, and should be interesting, memorable, and concise. It should also explain what makes you unique. Your elevator pitch can come in handy to open an interview, at job fairs or even online in your LinkedIn bio. Use your elevator pitch to gain confidence in how you introduce yourself to potential employers and hiring managers. To introduce yourself at networking events, your elevator pitch is clear and brief, making a great first impression. When done properly, this your short elevator pitch is a compelling and impressive way to introduce yourself to new potential career and business connections, can help you build up your network, secure a new job, or simply connect with new colleagues on the first day at a new employer.
