Practice Interviews
What impression do you give at an interview?
What are the pitfalls and common mistakes?
How can you improve your performance?
Do you welcome the opportunity of being interviewed?
The Service
In the hour session, you will be interviewed for 30 minutes and then receive immediate feedback on your performance. This will be followed by a written report emailed/posted to you, to provide you with a record of the session.
You will receive feedback on:
· First impressions
· Body language
· Voice tone
· Question answering style
· Opening and closing statements
· Use of examples and illustrations
· Depth of technical knowledge
Additionally, you will receive a short handout on interviews.
Preparation
Both you and we will need to do some preparation beforehand. We will ask you to send your current CV, a job advertisement and an example covering letter to match the advert. This will allow us to prepare relevant questions for you and to ensure a meeting room is available.
On the day
Please wear what you feel is appropriate for the interview.
Timescales
Allow 1-1½ hours for the practice session (30-45 mins of questions and similar for feedback and discussion)
