Competency Interviews
Competency interviews are a means of gauging critical decision making, emotional intelligence and leadership ability. While some questions may focus on process, others may require you to think back to complex workplace scenarios and reflect on your response, so it’s wise to prepare for all eventualities. In any case, apply the STAR method:
Situation
Give a brief outline of the situation
Task
Describe what you needed to do as a result of the situation
Action
Explain what you did, how you did it and why
Result
Detail the outcome of your actions
