Overview:
Your resume has worked for you and now it is time to demonstrate how well you play the Interview game. It's a game of words and impressions. When you understand the rules you can play the game with a lot more confidence and have a big influence on the outcome.
The interview process can often be seen as the biggest hurdle that people have to get over if they want to change careers. The uncertainty of what the selection panel might ask; who the competitors are and what they are offering; and whether you will be successful or not, makes for some anxious moments.

·practice in the roles of interviewer, observer, interviewee
·learn the value of feedback on their performance
·learn effective interviewing techniques
