Got an interview coming up? Whether it’s your first in years or one of many, good preparation makes all the difference.
In this free 40-minute webinar, we share practical interview preparation tips to help you feel calm, confident and fully ready to perform at your best.
If you’re job hunting, returning to work after a break, or simply planning your next career move, this session will give you clear, actionable advice you can apply straight away.
Strong interview performance starts long before the meeting itself. We talk through:
Preparation isn’t about memorising scripts — it’s about building confidence through clarity.
Competency-based interviews are now standard across many sectors. If you’ve ever been asked:
“Tell me about a time when…”
You’ll know how tricky they can feel.
In the webinar, we explain how to structure your answers clearly and confidently, so you stay focused and demonstrate real value rather than rambling or underselling yourself.
Career breaks, flexible working patterns and salary expectations are common concerns for candidates — especially returners.
We cover:
These are often the questions that cause the most anxiety, but with the right preparation, they can become opportunities to reinforce your strengths.
This session offers practical guidance to help you perform at your best.
If you want to improve your interview technique, build confidence, and feel more in control of the process, the recording is ready for you below.
Watch our webinar ‘Perfect Your Interview Skills’, with Ten2Two’s Jo Gregory and Deborah O'Sullivan linked below.
Start by reviewing the job description carefully and identifying the key skills and behaviours required. Prepare structured examples that clearly demonstrate your experience — ideally using a simple framework to keep your answers focused and concise. Practice saying your examples out loud so they feel natural and confident, rather than scripted.
Be honest, positive and forward-looking. Briefly explain the reason for the gap, highlight any skills gained during that time, and then steer the conversation back to what you bring to the role now. Career breaks are increasingly common — confidence and clarity matter far more than perfection.
Strong closing questions show genuine interest and commercial awareness. You might ask about team priorities, measures of success in the first six months, current challenges, or company culture. Avoid questions that could easily be answered on the website — focus on insight rather than information.
Preparation is the biggest confidence builder. Research the organisation thoroughly, practise your key examples, and plan your opening introduction. On the day, allow plenty of time, breathe slowly and remember — interviews are a two-way conversation, not an interrogation.
Watching a webinar is a great start — but sometimes a bit of tailored support makes all the difference.
