Attending an interview is always nerve-wracking, even if you’re confident you have the skills to do the work. Just because you know you can do the job and would be a great fit at the company, doesn’t mean the interviewer will think the same.
This course will help you create that alignment, by helping improve your confidence, develop your communication skills and enable you to focus on presenting your best self during the interview process.
In as little as an hour, you can learn how to improve your chances of securing the job before you even walk into the interview room. You’ll get tips and techniques for different types of interview, from one on one to group interviews, and you’ll put what you’ve learned to test as you guide a character through an interview scenario. Following this course you’ll be more prepared, more capable and more confident.
