15 Minutes to Public Sector Interview Success!

Want to make every interview count?

On Tuesday 20 October, Siobhan White from career specialists Hilt will host a FREE, fast-paced 15 minute webinar covering proven techniques to boost your confidence, sharpen your responses and leave a lasting impression.

Why public sector interviews catch people out

Public sector interviews are very structured. The panel usually asks every candidate the same questions and marks each answer against set criteria. That makes the process fair, but it also means the panel can only give you credit for what you actually say.

A vague answer, an example that never gets to the point or a strong achievement you forgot to mention can all cost marks. The good news is that this is a skill, and it can be learned!

What you will learn in 15 minutes

How to structure clear, compelling answers to common questions

A good example badly told will not score well. You will learn a simple way to shape your answers so the panel can follow them and mark them.

How to highlight your strengths with concise, memorable language

Most candidates undersell themselves or say too much. We will show you how to get your strengths across in a way the panel will remember.

Who is this webinar for?

It’s for you if you:

• Are applying for a public sector role for the first time
• Are going for an internal promotion
• Have not had but the result you wanted from previous interviews

Why only 15 minutes?

Because you are busy! This session is built to fit into a lunch break, with no padding. You will walk away with tools to improve your performance and practical tips that you can use immediately.
