Use the STAR Method
When answering behavioral questions, use the STAR method: Situation, Task, Action, Result. Describe the situation, your task, the actions you took, and the results of your actions.
Practice, Practice, Practice
The best way to improve your interview skills is to practice. Ask a friend or family member to interview you or practice in front of a mirror. The more you practice, the more confident you’ll feel.
