Interview preparation – learning and training with HR professionals
Attending job interviews is considered by psychologists to be one the most stressful situations people experience in their normal working life.
Add to that the current employment market, where there are over 500,000 UK job vacancies compared with nearly 2,500,000 job seekers (that's five people for every vacancy), and the pressure is on to shine at interview.
With so many people applying for the same job and the advent of online recruitment allowing job seekers to apply for multiple jobs at a time, the difficulty that quality applicants experience in differentiating themselves has increased dramatically over the last 2 years.
These factors all culminate to make the probability in securing an interview that much harder, placing even more pressure on job seekers to deliver.
Unfortunately it does not end there. It is being reported across all industries that HR managers and interviewing staff are becoming more stringent with their selection criteria and interviewing techniques making it more challenging for job seekers to manage.
Ask yourself:
- Do I know how to prepare effectively for an interview?
- How much preparatory work should I do on the prospective employer?
- How much interview training and experience have I had?
- What hurdles have held me back in the past and how do I overcome them?
- Do I know how to manage my nerves and field difficult questions effectively?
- Do I know how to handle a competency-based interview?
- How do I prepare for aptitude tests and psychometric assessments?
- What can I do to give myself a competitive edge over other applicants?
- How do I uncover and overcome the interviewer's concerns?
- Do I know How to Close an interview effectively?
