PEOPLE AWARDS INTERVIEW REQUIREMENTS

HOW TO MAXIMISE YOUR MARKS:

  • Relax, relax, relax
  • Dress in business attire – (even though the interview will be on Zoom)
  • Prepare for the interview by reading through your application and know what your achievements and key strengths are, regardless of who wrote your submission
  • Greet the judges with a smile and introduce yourself – it will help you to relax
  • This is your opportunity to be recognised for your hard work – don’t be shy – tell the judges what you have achieved
  • Show passion and enthusiasm in your responses
  • Be yourself, be honest
  • Practice answering questions about yourself in preparation for your interview.
  • Take a breath before answering the question or ask the judge to repeat the question to give you more time to think about your response
  • If you get stuck on a question just smile and take a moment, then answer again
  • Remember that this is not a formal job interview. The aim is to get to know you a little better and to find out why you are excelling in your role
