The Art of Interview Skills 
- Share to:
We spend a large part of our lives working, so the more enjoyable your work is, the more you will enjoy life! The purpose of this book is to help you prepare for that all important interview that will get you the job that you want. Whether you are a new graduate entering the workplace for the first time, an experienced worker facing redundancy as part of an organisational restructure or thinking of applying for a promotion in your current job; this book will inform and inspire you to your future success.
Having had a successful first career in Nursing, I learned a very important lesson;
“Life is an enquiry and then we die “or perhaps you are more familiar with the more common version “Life’s a bitch and then you die”. I came face to face with this when nursing young adults with life limiting illnesses. Not once did I ever meet someone as they faced the end of their life that said “I wish I had stayed in that job that I didn’t enjoy a bit longer...” in her book “The top five regrets of the dying” Bronnie Ware captures the reflections of people at the end of their lives. Their number one regret was:
“I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me”.
Realising this helped me to change my career, despite the concerns of friends, colleagues and family, I knew that I wanted to transfer my gifts and talents into Learning and Development.
Working in Staff development: designing training, coaching, mentoring opportunities for people, helping people to enjoy their work enables me to make a contribution in a different way from when I was a nurse. During my working life, I have been interviewed many times for a variety of jobs, I have also sat on Interview panels, run training courses on Interview skills for staff involved with Interviewing and currently one of the most rewarding aspects of my work is inspiring people with confidence, so that they shine at interviews and are successful getting the jobs that they really want!
