What happens at your one to one coaching session (N.Ireland only)

One of our consultants will carry out an interview ( which will be recorded) based on competency based interviews which many more companies are moving towards in their search for the perfect candidate.

If you are applying for a specific role and have already been told which competencies are being measured we will adapt your interview accordingly.

If, however you just want general advice we will carry out an interview based on the more common competencies which are measured in a variety of roles, and will tailor this to the type of role you are searching for.

We will then watch this interview back and talk through your performance together, giving you some practical guidance to help you improve your performance.

You will be in our office for approx 2 hours

Preparation

  • You will need to give us some background knowledge on the types of roles you are searching for so we can tailor your interview to your specific needs.
  • We will send you an e mail or letter giving you some information on competency based interviews, and tell you which competencies will be measured in your training interview
  • Come to your coaching session interview as if you were attending a real life interview.

Hints and Tips
• Preparation.   Do some research into the role you have applied for - even something as simple as visiting the company website can yield lots of useful information for you, and show your prospective employer that you are interested in his/her company.
• Be punctual.   If you can't be on time for an interview, the employer will have concerns about your ability to turn up on time for work, so leave yourself plenty of time to get there.  Even do a "dummy run" if this is feasible.
