Mid-Month Edition with Todd Bloomer & Dominic Armano This month, the Three Amigos—Darrin Peppard, Todd Bloomer, and Dominic Armano—are back with an episode that dives headfirst into one of the most common questions they get: “How do I land that principal job?” From the nerves of the interview to that surreal moment when you finally kick your feet up in the principal’s chair (even if it only lasts 10 minutes), this episode is packed with real talk, practical tips, and plenty of laughs. Whether you're just starting to think about school leadership or are gearing up for your third-round interview, this is the episode for you. 🎯 What We Talk About: How to prepare for interviews (and what not to say) The fine line between confidence and cockiness Doing your homework on the school, superintendent, and district Making a strong impression with school colors, mission alignment, and personal touches Internal vs. external candidates: how to stand out What to do when you don’t get the job The importance of being your authentic self—and including your family in your story Plus, Todd drops some killer one-liners (as always), Dom gets nostalgic, and Darrin makes peace with the Rockies' rough start to the season. 💡 Key Takeaways: Be humble, but don’t undersell your leadership experience Research isn’t just about the school—it’s about the people Scenario-based interview questions are your friend Rejection isn’t the end—it’s a chance to reflect and grow Your personality and values matter just as much as your resume 🧢 Bonus Tips: Wear the school colors Use the school’s hashtag or mission language Bring a notebook and call interviewers by name Answer with “I did,” not “I would” Subscribe so you don’t miss a single episode, and connect with us on social to keep the leadership conversation going. 🛣️ Until next time, have a Road to Awesome week.
