Role family

Include 10 behavioural questions

Question 1 of 22

Tell me about yourself.

Tip: Give a two minute summary: who you are now, what you have done that fits this role, and why you are here.

Answer timer

0:00

Aim for about two minutes. Answer out loud as if you were in the room.

Practising out loud helps more than reading answers silently. Record yourself on your phone if you can, then listen back for filler words and long pauses.

STAR answer builder

Use Situation, Task, Action and Result to structure answers to "tell me about a time" questions. Your notes stay on this page and are not saved.

Situation

Where were you and what was going on? One or two sentences.

Task

What were you responsible for, or what needed to happen?

Action

What did you do, step by step? Say "I", not "we". This should be the longest part.

Result

What changed? Use a number if you can, and say what you learned.

How to use the Interview Question Practice

Choose your role family and read the first question.
Start the timer and answer out loud in about two minutes.
Use the STAR template to plan stronger answers, then copy them.

Questions

What is the STAR method?

STAR stands for Situation, Task, Action and Result. It is a simple way to structure answers to questions that ask for an example from your experience.

How long should an interview answer be?

Around one to two minutes suits most questions. Long enough to give an example, short enough to keep the interviewer engaged.

Are my answers saved?

No. Your STAR notes stay on the page while you use it and are not stored or sent anywhere. Copy them if you want to keep them.
