Job Interview Technique and Training

In an ever competitive market being able to present yourself in a well prepared and confident manner is vital. At an interview you are effectively selling yourself and we will help you to put together your success story.
You will be given an interview to assess your performance with an analysis of any weak areas. You will be given techniques for confidence building and taking some control at the interview, so that instead of questions being fired at you and you being limited to answering these, you will become an equal player in the process. We will help you to build a compelling presentation on yourself with emphasis on particular successes that are relevant to the role. Any questions that you did not answer well, you will be given help in reframing your answers, together with the kind of questions that you can ask the interviewer. A large part of being successful at an interview is confidence and we use specialist NLP techniques to assist clients that suffer from lack of confidence or nervousness. There will be a discussion on attire, body language and techniques to deal with nerves.

Graduate Interviews

With so many highly educated and qualified graduates entering the work market, it is vital to put yourself in a position of advantage. Employers can choose from a highly educated global market and the competition is tough for graduates. The first job often sets the scene for a promising career. Although the level of academic education will give employers some indication of your abilities, what employers are looking for in graduates are people they can invest in for the long term. Often this interview will be the hardest since you will not have an employment history that will impress the employer. Instead it will be your personal attributes and how well you perform at the interview that will determine your success. Similar to a university interview employers tend to favour putting a candidate through their paces pulling and pushing them to different directions. We will conduct such an interview in advance and teach you techniques of building rapport and taking control of the toughest of interviews to bring a balanced and equal discussion at the interview.

Legal Training Contracts

Life for Law students can be stressful with many hurdles to climb through. Students become accustomed to academic study. In order to get on the step ladder of a legal career attaining a training contract with the right company is vital. This is often an added pressure when there are essays and exams to concentrate on. We provide excellent advice and techniques in preparing CV’s, covering letters and a target list of companies to apply to. Once the interviews have been arranged we prepare our clients in detail and in advance to allow them to successfully attain a training contract.

University Interview

University interviews can be particularly challenging and many universities use techniques designed to challenge the student in manner that is outside their comfort zone. Often the interviewer will take away the opportunity blatantly stating that the student is not right for the university. What many students fail to understand is that only the students that have a high potential of a place will be assessed in this gruelling manner. It is important not to panic and become defeated at the interview but rise to the challenge and with advance preparation the interview can be an interesting experience for both the interviewer and interviewee.

We conduct an interview and put the student through their paces and identify in advance any weaknesses which are then analysed for improvement allowing mistakes to be made only at this stage.

Corporations

We offer companies to undergo training with us to assist management and those interviewing candidates to effectively recruit and interview in order to assist them to hire the right candidates and build long term relationships with their employees.
