Step Eight - Telling Your Personal Story Orally
Wednesday Jul 08, 2020
Wednesday Jul 08, 2020
In addition to networking and opportunities to share your elevator pitch, the interview context is the most significant opportunity you will have to tell your personal story.
Before the interview be sure to research the organization and prepare some questions that you want to ask.
During the interview you might get a "situational" question or a "behavioral" one. A situational question is exactly what it says, i.e. a hypothetical situation. When they ask that kind of question, they are looking for leadership. Use the VALUE framework to describe how you would handle the situation. V - Vision, Al - Alignment of Resources, U - Understand, ensure everyone truly understands what is going on and E - Enactment - make it happen.
For the Behavioral questions, use the model STAR. Situation, Task, Action and Result.
And be sure to follow up after the interview with a thank you message.
