Here’s a basic interview mistake 99% of people make. Based on 10 years’ interview coaching experience.
They ASSUME other people are just “naturally better” than them at interviews… and that’s why they seem to pas so easily.
That's just not true. I want to share a story from a coaching call I had today to show you why.
Today, I was helping a client with her upcoming interview at Grant Thornton, let’s call her…. Lisa 😉
Lisa's had a couple of interviews at big companies., but she’s failed each of them, and it’s started to get frustrating.
She gets super nervous when she gets asked questions, and she always tries to remember her scripts word for word.
When she can’t remember her scripts she just “freezes."
Her mind goes blank, and then basically the interview is all over.
She feels like she can’t get her brain back in gear for the rest of the interview.
But by the end of her session today, she was answering one interview question after another, with EASE, and a smile on her face.
Her answers were phenomenal.
So what changed for Lisa?
I taught her a simple lesson you can use:
Passing an interview isn’t about writing and memorising scripts.
You can write the best, longest and most detailed script EVER. It will mean absolutely nothing in the real interview.
Because trying to memorise a script of answers for 10,20,30+ questions is completely mad.
You’re going to forget something, somewhere.
And when you do.
You’re going to feel like you want the ground to swallow you up whole.
Memorising scripts doesn’t work. Yet so many people still try to do that today.
Maybe you do too?
Instead I taught her to use STAR Stories.
Our STAR Stories Method, allows you to memorise a couple of stories which you can easily use to answer ANY behaviourial interview question for ANY company.
You heard me right.
You could prepare these stories ONCE.
And use them for interviews all year.
Imagine that?
