If it is a client job interview, and if it is with HR, then it will probably come in the shape of a “Behavioural interview.” So, if you are not an interview expert then Google “Behavioural interviews” and practice.

Review your resume; any of the qualities and skills you have included in your resume are fair game for an interviewer to press so you should have a prepared example for each of the key skills on your resume as well as those you anticipate the job requires.

Reflect on your own professional, volunteer, educational and personal experience and develop brief stories that highlight these skills and qualities in you.

Prepare stories by identifying the context, logically highlighting your actions in the situation, and identifying the results of your actions. Keep your responses concise and present them in less than two minutes.

You must have “achievements” throughout your resume and all achievements must demonstrate a positive outcome for your employer. You will need to be prepared to answer detailed questions about your achievements so be accurate in what you write.

But most of all, just answer the question that is asked, don’t anticipate just listen.

Never forget that you are judging them also, this is a two way street.
