    Job interviews: how to prepare for and succeed at them

    Do you have a job interview coming up and it’s making you feel increasingly anxious? If the thought of showcasing your talents to an interview panel is making your stress levels go through the roof, don’t worry, you are not alone. The key to success is preparation – prepare well and you are giving yourself the best chance to show the interviewers that you are the ideal candidate for the job. In the latest episode of the Nursing Standard podcast, hosted by RCNi career development editor Clare Lomas, independent careers coach Dave Cordle offers advice on what to do before, during and after your interview. Using the STAR technique to answer questions Should you go for an informal visit? Practise your answers out loud? How can you use the STAR technique – situation, task, actions and results – to answer questions? And how important is asking for feedback? He advises on all this and more, with examples of how to answer some common interview questions, including the classic icebreaker ‘tell us about yourself’. If you want to hear more from Mr Cordle, visit an RCNi Nursing Careers and Jobs Fair, where he is a regular speaker. You can also look at the RCN’s nursing careers resource, which has information, advice and support, including free coaching sessions for RCN members. Note: This is a recording from a panel discussion at an RCNi Nursing Careers and Jobs Fair in Manchester. For more episodes of the Nursing Standard podcast, visit rcni.com/podcast  Hosted on Acast.
