Practical – with things to do, questions to answer, photos to comment on, things to practise with a friend. Most of us learn best by doing, so you will find a five-step programme of exercises to get you fit and ready for the interview (the really important facts are there too).
A simple framework that is easy to learn:T-A-P-A-S. Think – Analyse – Prepare – Adjust – Shine!
Think like an Employer – Understand what the interviewer is feeling, so that you can give them what they are looking for
Analyse the Job – Make sure you understand the company and know what the job involves so you can show you are right for the job
Prepare the Evidence – Gather evidence of your ability to do the job and then create convincing STAR stories to help the interviewers visualise you in the role
Adjust your Image and Adjust your Mindset - Look the part as you walk through the door and believe in yourself so that you act the part.
Shine like a Star – Make an impact, notice how people are responding and manage your performance at the beginning, middle and end of the interview.
