Interviewing as a skill, not a formality
This course treats interviewing the way a top recruiter actually experiences it: as a discipline built on psychology and tactics, not a box to check before an offer letter. The instructor opens with a cautionary story from their own recruiting career — a candidate who talked his way into leading a hospital's cardiac surgery unit despite having no medical degree — to make a simple point: polished interviewing and real competence are not the same thing, and both interviewers and candidates need to understand the difference.
Who it's for
- Candidates who freeze up or under-prepare for interviews despite strong on-the-job performance
- Anyone who wants a structured way to answer behavioral questions
What's covered
- The STAR/CAR method for structuring answers
- The 16 most common interview questions
- Subconscious communication and body language
- Closing tips for the interview itself
About this course
Often bad candidates are great at interviewing, and great candidates are horrible at interviewing. Why? Top performers usually do not have time to prepare for the interview, they are too busy working. Make no mistake that interviewing is an art and a science. It is steeped in psychology and underpinned with tactical manoeuvres that when used correctly can provide an impressive competitive advantage.
I once had a client who had come to use after they hired the head of cardiac surgery at their hospital, only to find out once he stated that he did not even have a medical degree, he was a complete fraud. That is the scariest case of fraud I have ever seen and to be clear I was not involved in the hire, the client came to us after the fact to clean up the mess. The point is that this fraudster was so good at interviewing he convinced a panel of surgeons that he was qualified to lead the cardiac surgery unit, even though he had never performed surgery in his life.
The point is that these techniques in this section of the course are extremely powerful. Pay attention to the psychological principles that are at play and you will avoid some of the assessment quagmires people often fall prey to. Take note that there are two pages of course and we go over the STAR or CAR Method, then the 16 most common interview questions, subconscious communication, body language, and final tips.
