Potentially a minefield, the job interview is often seen as an ordeal, rather than an opportunity to shine and secure an exciting new job. Many people speak of the anxiety, panic and concern they feel at the prospect of an important interview, yet with thorough preparation they know they can overcome these fears and emotions.

Interviews & Presentations
New Horizons' interview training prepares you for all types of interview so you can enjoy the experience and perform with confidence.
A typical comprehensive interview training module could include the following elements, coaching you step by step through all the critical stages:
- What is an interview? Understanding the structure of an interview and exploring the relationship between interviewer and interviewee.
- Types of interview. The one-to-one interview; the panel interview; the 'informal' chat; unusual locations.
- Interview basics. What to wear, personal presentation, body language and making a positive first impression.
- Essential techniques. Analysing questions, listening skills, constructing and practising effective responses to a wide range of questions.
- Dealing with awkward questions. Learning and practising techniques to prepare you for all eventualities while avoiding common pitfalls.
- Taking control. Ensuring that you convey the impression that best represents you and promotes your claim to the job you want.
- Overcoming common concerns. Dealing with a difficult interviewer; asking relevant and perceptive questions; keeping focused throughout the interview; making a final, lasting and positive impression.
- Effective presentations. We will help you to develop, put together and deliver effective PowerPoint and other presentations.
- Assessment centres. We will demystify the confusion that often surrounds assessment centres and guide you to produce a strategy for dealing with them.
Delivery is mainly on a one-to-one basis across a number of sessions and can involve coaching at a distance by telephone and e-mail. We also run group sessions on request. Regular reviews and 'debriefings' feature as part of the service to ensure that lessons are learned at every opportunity.
