Pre-Course Work

The first hour of the course will be spent on how to introduce yourself to a panel with maximum impact. In order to ensure that you and your colleagues get the most out of this first hour, we would ask you kindly to prepare a 3-minute answer to one of the following common opening interview questions:

  • Tell me about yourself.
  • Take us through your CV.
  • What can you offer this Trust?

Prepare your answer as you would give it in the context of a real interview
