These 5 Personality Traits Will Hurt Your Chances of Getting Hired
Getting a job offer often boils down to having the right personality for the role. Sure, skills and experience are unquestionably important; if you're not qualified to do a given job, the employer that's hiring isn't going to pick you. But when you're up against applicants with skills similar to yours, your personality could be the one thing that sets you apart from the pack -- for better, but also, for worse.
In fact, in many cases, the way you come off during a job interview will dictate whether you get hired for the role you're after. And while you can't necessarily snap your fingers and change your personality, you should be aware of the personality traits that tend to turn hiring managers and interviewers off. TopInterview, a career-coaching network, and Resume-Library, a leading U.S. job board, conducted a survey of talent acquisition professionals last month to see which personality traits they consider the most and least desirable among job candidates, and here are five in particular that can really hurt your chances of landing a new job.
