Interviewing? Keep your politics to yourself
The election is finally upon us…and as much as you want to share your political opinions…with your spouse, co-worker or potential new employer, keep those opinions to yourself. Even if you have a interview scheduled sometime later in the week after the election, be discreet and keep your politics to yourself.
Keep away from wearing stickers or pins advertising your party affiliation and also be careful about what you mention during your interview (unless you are interviewing for a job working for an elected official or a political party). Since you have no idea what party affiliation the person interviewing you is supporting, there’s no point losing what could be a good job offer because you said too much or offended the interviewer.
