Look at from that perspective, something clearly sticks out – what about networking? What if you meet someone that owns a company or is in charge of hiring for a position in your personal or professional life, and you might be right for the role?

What if your friend introduces you to his boss at a dinner, and as your friend introduces you to their boss, they say aloud “So and so works as an X. We’re hiring for an open position in the X department, aren’t we?”

The boss looks at you, mentions that they are indeed hiring, and suddenly you find yourself in a job interview – an interview that you did not plan for. What do you do?
