- Add three skills that match the job advert wording
Interview preparation
Prepare three stories that show problem solving, teamwork and reliability — then practise them out loud.
- Research the employer's projects and clients
- Prepare two questions to ask them
- Arrive 15 minutes early, or test your video link the day before
