What does an interviewer’s scoring sheet look like?
Have you ever wondered how interviewers make a decision on which candidate to choose? In most competency based interviews it is simply a numbers game. Each question you are asked is testing whether or not you have a particular competency required to do the job. Each answer you give will earn marks for how well you convince the interviewer you have that particular competency.
Proof – not random waffle – will give you interview points
For instance let’s take an interviewer’s favourite: “Tell me about a time when you contributed to the success of a team” Using the STAR based approach to answer the question you will outline a story that tells the interviewer of a particular SPECIFIC time (do not talk hypothetically – give them a real example) where you showed that you have excellent team working skills. You will tell them about the Situation or Task, the Action you took and the Result. The more convincing you can make your story and the more it shows you demonstrating the competency they are asking you about, the higher you will score on their marking sheet. In this example our candidate Joe Bloggs did a pretty good job and scored 8.5/10.
