𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 ‘𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲𝘀’ 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄?

Knowing what your values are can help you find job opportunities that most align with your beliefs and can make you feel more confident in an interview. They help define who and what you are!

More companies are integrating questions on core values into their interview process. They ask specific questions around their organisational core values and recognised that they are looking to hire candidates who have similar values to their own.

In fact, the alignment process between you and an organisations begins in the application stage and then in the interview itself.

Organisations and employees with aligned values seem to foster a better and richer work culture and candidates who prove their aligned values during the interview process through relating successful stories involving those values are far better placed to receive a job offer!

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗮𝗻 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄
I’ve interviewed on behalf of organisations for many years and basically there are 𝗧𝗛𝗥𝗘𝗘 things I want to find out about the candidates:

𝟭. 𝗖𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗱𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗷𝗼𝗯?
· Do they have the appropriate qualifications, knowledge, skills?
· Their learning potential.
· Their ability to handle the physical/mental aspects of the job.

𝟮. 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗱𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗷𝗼𝗯?
· Their interest in the position, company, department, industry.
· Do they have the right motivation, energy and drive?
· Their work ethics.
· Outside influences that may affect their willingness or availability!

𝟯. 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗳𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝗻?
· Are their values in line with the organisation’s culture, vision and mission?
· Chemistry.
· Dress and appearance.
· Their communication style (verbal and non-verbal)

There are certain questions which interviewers like to ask for each of the three categories above and you should know what they are and prepare answers for them. Knowing this will really put you ahead of the game and increase your confidence level!

And finally - this seems an odd thing to say - interviewers don’t really want to know about your past but they are scared about the future! But since the future is difficult to predict, so interviewers will try to "𝗴𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘀" your future behaviour by asking questions about your past behaviour in previous roles!

If I can assist with your interview preparation and help "𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝘁" the questions you may be asked, then please get in touch!

Square Breathing or Box Breathing is a very simple deep breathing technique which you can try. This is particularly good for relieving stress, anxiety and panic and it takes just a few minutes and can be practised anywhere. You can do it standing up, lying down on sitting in a chair.

This technique is a great way to refocus your mind during or after a hectic day. You know the feeling you get sometimes when you’re multitasking and you feel as if you’re in a fog and your brain is fuzzy! Take a break and clear your head and reenergise your brain.

While breathing and counting, using diaphragmatic breathing which I talked about in my previous post, use the image below as a visual aid and follow these steps:

1) On a count of 4, inhale slowly through your nose, allowing your breath to flow deep into your belly
2) Hold for a count of 4
3) Exhale slowly through your mouth on a count of 4
4) Hold for a count of 4
5) And repeat

Good luck. I’m sure you’ll find this very energising and it’ll get you ready to tackle the rest of your working day! Remember to practise this regularly.

If you enjoyed the post, please like and share! Thank you.
