Interview Technique
How to be more powerful and effective in interviews
Learn to be more authentic, confident and succinct in interviews, putting your best foot forward verbally and non- verbally so that you get the job offers you deserve.
Interviewing is a notoriously challenging process, and one that most of us do not relish. Plus these days an online or video interview is now often the first stage of getting a new job. We will support you to come across brilliantly – both in-person and online – so you get the job offers your deserve.
What could you achieve from our Interview Technique course?
DO YOURSELF JUSTICE
One of the most painful things in an interview is knowing you are perfect for the job, but not knowing how to get that across. This course helps you deliver on all fronts- on the phone, in person and online.
PREPARE TO SUCCEED

BRING YOUR VALUES TO THE TABLE
Make impact in the interview by sharing what makes you tick so potential employers can see exactly why its a perfect fit.
MAKE A GREAT IMPRESSION

STEPS FOR SUCCESS
To make the online sessions truly powerful and effective, as much like the real thing as we can, the most important thing is to make sure to have a few things ready –>
1. LAPTOP & WIFI
We recommend using a Laptop for your online session. You will want your hands free for some of the exercises so you can’t be holding a phone or tablet. Make sure you have a quiet place to concentrate.
2. PHONE
Many exercises will require you to record yourself and play it back during the session. So be sure to have your phone (or another recording device) handy.
3. COURSE MANUAL
We will send you a PDF version of the Course Manual. We recommend that you have this printed out or available to view on a separate tablet.
Our Methodology
Our interview technique is a totally new approach to interview training that goes far deeper than your regular interview training would go. We incorporate tools from coaching, performance and psychology as well as classic interview training and brings it together in a seamless way that leads to tangible results.
We teach you, through targeting your body language, facial expression, posture and handshake exactly how to make positive impact from the moment you walk into the room.
Knowing how to establish a connection with the interviewer is crucial because if they enjoy being with you, they’re more likely to hire you. We give you the tools to help you appeal to the head and the heart.
.
We help you prepare clear, concise and structured answers for any question, with the right balance of story and evidence, to get your point across and prove that you’re more than just words.
Once you have done your prep the next step is to get you on your feet, in a mock interview, so you can get all the learning in your muscle memory. We film these mock interviews, so you can see for yourself what is and isn’t working.
We help you discover your values and drivers so you know what you truly bring to the table. And the upshot of it? Authentic interviews, inspired connections and job offers you can’t wait to accept.
We help you make sure that the roles you are going for, are a perfect match for your values, principles, experience and ethos. Because when you find the perfect fit, that is where you can fly.
