Se trata que conozcan nuestras habilidades técnicas y blandas.

Reflecting deeply on past experience in an interview involves thoughtfully considering your actions, decisions & outcomes your insights clearly. Reviewing past experience, identifying significant events , challenges & accomplishment. Emphasize your specific contribution, decisions & actions rather than just describing the teams & organization's efforts. Highlight the skills, knowledge or insights you gained from the experience & how you have applied them since. Share challenges, mistake or failures & explain about your learning from them. Use concrete examples to illustrate your points rather than generalizations.

Begin by briefly describing the situation or challenge you faced. Provide enough context so the interviewer understands the background of your story. Clearly state your specific role and responsibilities in that situation. Define what was expected of you and what your objectives or goals were. Detail the actions you took to address the situation or achieve the task. Focus on your contributions and the steps you took to resolve the challenge or complete the project. Conclude your answer by describing the results or outcomes of your actions. Provide concrete examples with details.

We used the STAR process extensively at my previous employer. Oftentimes, people prepare by trying to recall many STAR situations and then fumble around trying to recall all of them during the interview. This creates an awkwardness during the interview that can lead to a failed interview. Instead, when preparing for this type of interview you only need to remember one or two Situations (S). These can serve as the foundation for the Task, Action, and Result interview responses, simplifying the preparation process. This also adds coherency to the interview and avoids ping-ponging all over the place with disjointed situations that make it tough for the interviewer to follow. Try this method. It works.

Focus on the most relevant details of your experience to clearly illustrate your adaptability. Discuss your ability to adjust your approach, priorities, or strategies based on new information or shifting priorities. Showcase your willingness and ability to learn new skills, technologies, or methodologies to meet changing demands.

Provide specifics instances where you adjusted to new situations, challenges or technologies. Emphasize how your exiting skills can be adapted to new contexts. Explain how to handle ambiguity, uncertainly challenges & how to bounce back from setbacks and maintain a positive attitude. Questions can be asked to demonstrate your willingness to learn & adapt.

Admitting to failure shows humility and honesty, which are valued traits in employees. Focus on the lessons learned and how you applied them positively rather than dwelling on the failure itself. Highlight how you adapted your behavior or approach as a result of the failure. Show that you can learn from setbacks and apply those lessons in future situations. Emphasize how the failure ultimately contributed to your personal or professional growth.

Do you own the failure, or are you quick to blame another? If you don't offer a response that reflects "I", you need to rethink your approach. Failures breed success when you learn from it. Many workplaces encourage a fail-fast strategy as part of their culture. This encourages risk taking and outside the box thinking to find novel ways to solve problems. During an interview, addressing a failure demonstrates plenty about your character, the ability to learn, and how you function as a team player. Don't run from failure. Instead demonstrate how you failed, what you learned from it, and how it gave you the insight to solve or prevent problems in the future. These lessons will showcase your ability to learn and grow.

Provide specific examples of achievements that demonstrate your impact. Choose accomplishments that are directly related to the job you're applying for. Emphasize any innovative solutions you implemented or decisions you made that had a positive impact. Provide examples of projects where you collaborated with others, delegated tasks, and achieved collective goals. Talk about how you continuously seek opportunities for learning and development. Provide examples of how you effectively communicated with stakeholders, clients, or team members. Share your career aspirations and how this role fits into your long-term career plans. Connect your past experiences to your future goals within the organization.
