WHY INTERVIEW COACHING WORKS
Laura has 15 years experience in Human Resources and Recruitment. She has worked as a Human Resource Consultant with a number of Irish and International enterprises, training line managers on how to manage an effective recruitment processes including:
• how to conduct interviews,
• how to select the competencies to be evaluated during the interview,
• providing guidance on selection of the successful candidate.
Such experience has given her a unique insight as to what qualities employers are looking for during the interview process.
“Doing the mock interview with Laura gave me the edge I needed to get the job. I was a lot more confident in the interview and had plenty of examples to hand to convince the employer that I was the best person for the role. Money well spent!”
Benefits of Interview Coaching:
Most people lack training in how to perform well in interview. It is a weak muscle that needs to be strengthened before entering the competition arena.
You need an objective party to assess your performance. You are too close to yourself to see what areas need to be improved on.
Learn how to effectively answer competency based questions – these are becoming a more common interview tool.
Have a fresh perspective on tone of voice, body language – crucial yet often overlooked areas when approaching an interview. Remember decisions are made in the first 3 minutes of meeting a candidate.
Correctly identify your strengths – many people are unaware of what skill set they are bringing to the table. By asking the right questions we can identify your unique skills e.g. what feedback were you given in your last performance review?, what aspects of your role do you particularly enjoy? (these are often the areas that you excel in).
Help match your strengths to the job requirements.
Guidance on how to answer the awkward questions unique to each client, e.g. why did you leave your last role?
Interview coaching will boost your confidence and reduce anxiety, giving you the best possible chance of securing a job offer.
