Sorry I’m late to the #PracticeTuesday party, but a word on talking yourself up: Do it. You owe it to yourself and your future employer. You are amazing, and if you don’t help them know how, then the position will be filled by a less amazing, less appropriate person. Net loss.
“Yes but Carl, don’t be stupid. It’s certainly possible to be too braggy. I’ve seen it done. How do I avoid going too far?”
Pretty easy, really, if you are the type of person to worry about whether you’ve gone too far. You’ve got the internal regulator that braggy people lack.
