Description:

If you made it to the job interview you are already very successful: you wrote a convincing application. Now you need to convince in a face-to-face situation. In this workshop, you will learn how to prepare job interviews and how to do them in a convincing manner. And we will practice them.

Topics we deal with: 

  • How to prepare for the interview (which aspects have to be considered? what do I need to do?)
  • The most important point in the interview: show my competencies and achievements. How do I do this?
  • Typical questions and fitting answers
  • It is normal to feel stressed – but how do I deal with it?
  • How to talk about your salary?
  • Thorough training of interview situations in small groups.

First day is wiht the complete group. 2nd day we meet in small groups to do mock interviews. Schedule for day 2 is organized at the first day. 
Please bring a suitable job ad with you (i. e. for a job that suits your profile and/ or a job you consider applying for).

* Creditability within the kick-off seminar

For reasons of respect and fairness towards all participants and the workshop leaders, participants who miss more than 10% of the workshop are considered not to be present. You will therefore not receive a certificate and you will not be able to use the workshop in question to unlock funds or acquire further qualifications.

Before you register, please confirm with your supervisor/employer that you are free to participate in the course on that date.
