Each staff member will also receive relevant course material to take away with them containing further information on preparing for interviews.

How the Interview Coaching service works:

Stage 1)

At the beginning of your session your consultant will ask some relevant interview questions in order assess the current skill level of each member of staff and identify which areas require the most attention.

Stage 2)

• Guidance on how to research a potential employer before interview
• Preparation of some standard answers to tough questions which may be asked at interview
• Helping them to formulate answers to competency based interview questions based on their own experience
• Teaching them some techniques to build rapport with the interviewer(s)
• Providing relevant questions to ask a potential employer at interview
• Providing advice on how to dress to impress and professional body language
• Practical techniques to ensure they arrive on time and fully prepared

Stage 3)

At the end of the session we will stage a short Mock Interview comprising 4/5 questions to allow the staff member to benchmark their progress and practice the new techniques they have learned.

Mock Interview

This can take this form of an individual one-to-one mock interview session, in person or over the telephone with feedback on performance.

Each session lasts for 30 minutes. We start by asking a series of interview questions, tailored as closely as possible to the type of interview the individual is likely to face. We will then provide them with honest, structured feedback on their interview technique including:

• How well they listened to the interview questions
• If they understood the questions being asked
• How well they answered the questions
• If they interacted appropriately with the interviewer
• How well they explained their skills and experience
• If they highlighted relevant skills and achievements for the position
• Overall performance and successes

We can also video the session if required to enable each individual to self-analyse their performance

We will also direct them to a range of job search tools such as internet job-boards and CV databases which will assist them to find a new role.
