Prove You Are Adaptable

Few employers can promise that change will not disrupt the job you are seeking. They need you to be adaptable, but they may not ask. Instead, they will look for evidence in your work habits that prove you don’t fear change. These include having backup plans, coping well with sudden redirection, always having different approaches to problems, and evidence of your ability to make lemonade out of lemons.

Be prepared to talk about a big problem or sudden crisis you faced, and how you weren’t rattled, instead overcoming or achieving new heights from it. You’ll make the right impression.
