Submitted by: AdministratorStep #1 - Study the job description and organization to identify the criteria for the job (not “requirements”). The criteria are likely to be “soft skills,” e.g., flexibility, team orientation, interpersonal skills, etc. Create a grid, with the criteria on the left and your previous employers across the top.
Step #2 - Fill-in the cells with a note about each employer/accomplishment that addresses the new job criteria. (Without the ability to post a table online, I can't provide a good-looking sample - contact this author for a complimentary copy of this worksheet...)
Step #3 - Once you've completed this “homework,” use your notes to prepare for questions and conversation with the interviewers. Be careful to limit your responses to three - four crisp sentences, using the Problem (Challenge) - Action - Result model.
Ironically, you'll need to rehearse these responses so you can deliver them in a style that appears to be totally spontaneous!
Rehearse wherever you are alone and won't feel silly talking out loud to yourself, e.g., while driving, drying your hair, etc. Preparation is the key to nailing the behavioral interview.
