Be A Star! Use S.T.A.R.

Do you have the S.T.A.R attitude?

Do you have what it takes to ace an interview?


A session by Ruth Fernandes, hosted by Avil Pinto, Santosh D'Souza and Venzil Fernandes on Dubai Jobs Hunt.


What is S.T.A.R?

S.T.A.R is a technique that helps to prepare behavioural interview questions on a situational basis.

Situation - Task - Action - Result


What is the S.T.A.R technique?

Situation: A context where you performed a job or faced a challenge

Task: Your responsibility in that situation

Action: How you completed the task. Focus on the "I", not the "we"

Result: The results generated by your action


How to use the S.T.A.R technique?

Before the interview:

- Review the job description and split the responsibilities

- Think of challenges that may arise in the position

- List the various situations (S.T.A.R), that will display your strengths to succeed in this role


During the interview:

- Pause to think on the objective of the question

- Recall a situation and create your story

- Recollect the task and how you managed it

- How did you proceed with your action

- Finally, what was the result


Use this strategy and ace the interview.
