Majority of the employers say that the primary reason why they do not hire a candidate is the lack of its ability to clearly state its skills.

During the workshop you will learn necessary tips, guidance and strategical approach on how to highlight the skills, knowledge and experience which an employer is looking for.

To succeed in the interviews all you need to do is to make an inventory of your skills which is a unique feature of this workshop. Once an inventory of skills is prepared you will love talking to persons and describing about them, what do you do and how do you do. Learning how to face interviews fearlessly would be as simple as learning bicycling.

CONTENTS OF THE WORKSHOP

1. Why are interviews so SCARY? 2.

To succeed in the interviews, you need to make an inventory of your skills. The types of skills required to win the interview game are classified into four categories. Identifying skills in each of these categories is the first step in crafting examples that will help to explain your skills and experience to interviewers clearly in a convincing (and interesting) way.
