Interviews are not just about what you know. They are about how you think on your feet, respond under pressure, and show up with confidence when you do not have a perfect script. In this episode of Ask a Recruiter, Leah Ova sits down with improv coach and communication expert Holly Mandel to explore how improv techniques like “yes, and,” presence, and active listening can transform your job interview performance.
Holly Mandel is the founder of iMergence and a former Main Company member and instructor at The Groundlings. She works with professionals and Fortune 500 teams to build confidence, clarity, and real time communication skills that translate directly into high stakes conversations.
Together, Leah and Holly tackle tough interview questions from the Glassdoor community, from “Tell me about yourself” to curveballs like “How would you sell ice cream in the Arctic?” They break down practical tools you can use immediately, including how to pivot mid answer, manage interview anxiety, project warmth and energy on Zoom, and build the kind of charisma that gets you to the next round.
If you are job hunting, preparing for a promotion, or simply want to communicate with more authority and authenticity, this episode gives you actionable strategies you can try this week.
