How to Prepare STAR Answers BEFORE the Interview
Preparation before your interview is the key to success, if you don’t take the time to think about the job, reflect on why you are suitable and how to get those points across, you could come away from the interview thinking ‘Could I have prepared better?
Research the job
You can’t properly prepare unless you know exactly what you’re preparing for.
So, you’ll need to research the job to understand what skills and competencies the position requires, and what kind of experience an ideal candidate would have.
Your best bet is the job advert itself. Read it carefully and pay special attention to sections like “What you’ll be responsible for” or “Your duties.”
Explore the company’s website and social media
This will help you get a clearer picture of its structure, the team you’d be joining, and how it fits within the wider organisation. These platforms also offer valuable insights into the company culture, helping you identify the soft skills that will make you a great fit.
Plan when you are going to do this
Don’t wait until your sitting outside the office or 20 minutes before the virtual meeting – the interviewer can pick this up easily from your hesitation and you only get one chance to make the right impression
