Tips for my job interview tomorrow?!

Hi Rhia9,

I'm a careers adviser at a University - we see students coming in for interviews all the time! Here's some competency based questions you could be asked:
- Give an example of when you worked as a member of a team. What was your role in the team? What activity were you working on, and what was the outcome?
- Can you think of an occasion when you have had to persuade someone to do something which they were reluctant to do?
- Tell us about a time when you had a tight deadline and had to work under pressure to meet that deadline. How did you manage it?
- This job requires excellent verbal communication. Can you provide an example of when you have used your verbal communication skills effectively?
- Give us an example of an occasion when you had to motivate someone else?
- Tell me about a time when you had to deal with a particularly challenging situation.

Use the 'CAR' technique to answer competency style questions:
Context - set the scene / describe the situation and possibly what you had to do.
Action - what you did. If you're asked about team work, describe what your role was specifically, not just what the team did as a whole.
Result - what the outcome was. Was it positive or negative? It might be appropriate to reflect on the task and describe what you would do differently or change for next time.

I also echo what Devify says above - research the company, think of a question to ask them at the end of the interview (avoid questions about pay / holidays etc. - you want to sound interested in the company, not the perks) and be confident.

Good luck!!
