interview coaching

For individuals who want to demonstrate their value by clearly articulating their competencies, knowledge and experience professionally, confidently and congruently.

Are you as effective in person as you are on paper? Your resume may have been compelling enough to get you an interview, but your interview performance will determine whether you get the job.

Push the Right Buttons

• Understand contemporary interview strategies and what they are designed to uncover
• Gain an insight into what employers are looking for when they ask specific questions 
• Practise responding to questions that you are likely to be asked for your specific role
• Structure your answers to demonstrate your capability and suitability
• Reframe perceived weaknesses that you feel awkward addressing
• Communicate congruently so that what you say matches how you say it
• Build rapport and connect with your interviewers

Employers want to feel confident that they are making the right hiring decision as the wrong choice can cost them dearly. Job interviews are designed to delve more into your experience and capabilities to discover if you are a good fit to the role and the organisation's values, culture and people. 

Behavioural interviews are increasingly used in today's hiring process. As behavioural interviews are based on the notion that your past performance is indicative of your future performance, it is essential that you provide specific examples from your previous work related experience. 

If you're unprepared for an interview, you may laugh nervously, provide irrelevant answers and ramble on without a focus. Instead of using the opportunity to communicate how you could add value to your employers, you could talk them out of giving you a job.

In coaching you, we'll help you to avoid common mistakes made in interviews and give you a strong foundation to succeed at interviews.
