Interview Technique Training
 Do you find interviews daunting? We can help you overcome that dread.
Do you dread going to employment interviews, or find them quite daunting? Join the club. Many of us view them with the same amount of apprehension as public speaking and for some people they may as well be facing the Spanish Inquisition!
Not many people enjoy being put on the spot, questioned about their careers and having to blow their own trumpets.
The worst part is, that interviews are an oral exam where you only get a pass or fail, either you got the job or you didn’t. We rarely ever get told sincerely why or where we went wrong if we didn’t get the role. Some of us are brave enough to ask the interviewer why we weren’t chosen, but we still may not get a useful or candid response. How many of us have heard the standard recruitment consultant line “there was a better candidate”. That may be true, but how does that help you do a better job in your next job interview.
So how do you get around this dilemma of not knowing where you have gone wrong in job interviews? How do you improve on how you come across or avoid making some career limiting mistakes if you don’t even know that you’re making them? Some kind recruiters may point some things out during interviews, but you rarely get the level of honest feedback needed to improve your interviewing.
This is where we can help. At Career Coach Consulting we realised that there is a real need for interview technique training. Our consultants have been on both sides of the interview table, as the interviewer and the interviewee – and we certainly know which side is harder!
We offer small group and individual interview technique training sessions covering the following:
