Marcus Buckingham My career expertise is as a psychometrician – somebody who builds tests to measure personality. Companies would employ me to build interviews to measure the talents of people before they were hired. – Marcus Buckingham Build Quotes Builds Quotes Career Quotes Companies Quotes Employ Quotes Expertise Quotes Hired Quotes Interviews Quotes Measure Quotes People Quotes Personality Quotes Psychometrician Quotes Talents Quotes Tests Quotes A note of caution: We can never achieve goals that envy sets for us. Looking at your friends and wishing you had what they had is a waste of precious energy. Because we are all unique, what makes another happy may do the opposite for you. That’s why advice is nice but often disappointing when heeded. Emphasize your strengths on your resume, in your cover letters and in your interviews. It may sound obvious, but you’d be surprised how many people simply list everything they’ve ever done. Convey your passion and link your strengths to measurable results. Employers and interviewers love concrete data.
