This workshop concentrates on the pre-interview preparation; developing questions and their value; the interview techniques that get specific, behavior-based examples of past performance; and the strategies that follow through on this process. This workshop reminds us of what we must do before the interview, during the interview and after the interview, such as developing the questions we want to ask and knowing the responses we are looking for.
