Interview Tips

[GlitterSquid]

I have an interview this week, first I've had in years and the first for a big corporate company I've had for even longer.
My last interview was very much 'pop in for a chat and if we like you, you're hired'.

This one is via Microsoft Teams with the head of HR.

What can I do to breeze it? I'm SO excited about this position, it's perfect for me and I want them to see that but I don't want to babble or get over excited.

Any advice would be hugely appreciated!

Make sure you don’t leave a dildo on the bookshelf behind you.

Have your CV behind the screen for inspiration / confidence

Have real life examples of when you did things including

Failed / learned from it
Difficult boss
Succeeded and how you did it
Worked in a team / on your own
Communicated something difficult

I just did 3 interviews in 8 days and the 3rd was much better as I was 'in the zone' so to speak (no idea if I got the job yet!)

Good luck though

Good luck to you too @olderthanilookapparently

Some really interesting little pointers there for me to consider! I hadn't even thought about difficult situation/people.

I'm going to make some notes tonight, just to solidify the answers in my mind, rather than read from.

Thank you for all the interview tips, it went amazingly, I've been selected for a second interview in person and I'm just really chuffed. 🥂🥰

@GlitterSquid - well done that is great

I managed 3 interviews in 8 days last week

1 internal job (which I didn't get) and 1 external one which I did!

Good luck with the next interview
