How to succeed in a job interview

This book is designed for all candidates wishing to prepare in the best possible way for oral interviews, whether as part of a recruitment competition, an examination, or a job interview in the private sector.Job interviews can take different forms: STAR interviews, motivational interviews, case studies, group exercises, role playing, etc.. These tests, which can take place face to face or remotely, aim particularly to assess the behavioural skills of candidates, who must show that they are able to adapt quickly and adequately to a new work environment.During the interview, candidates must not only ensure that their responses are relevant, but also be aware of the behavioural messages they are giving – the emotions revealed by the tone of their voice, their eyes, their gestures, etc.. They must therefore learn to control their verbal and non-verbal communication, and to manage their stress.Good preparation is essentialThis book provides candidates with the keys to success:- a comprehensive methodology for each type of question;- a typology and detailed analysis of behavioural skills;- practical advice on improving verbal and non-verbal communication (remote and face-to-face interviews);- techniques for managing stress;- example questions with detailed answers;- practical exercises.This book is particularly recommended for those sitting civil service competitions and examinations for EU institutions and agencies (EPSO), and for the Belgian, (Selor), Luxembourg (Govjobs), Irish (Publicjobs) and UK (Civil Service) public sector, as well as interviews in the private sector.
