Thank you so much for doing this guys. This is super helpful. I’m only on the reserve list but trying to be as prepared as I can. Thanks again 😊

@@julifak Hi, so glad you found it helpful. Its definitely worth preparing as many courses do go down their reserve list (particularly if they interview later in the cycle) and you may well not get much notice. Good luck!

It’s result not reflect for the STAR method. What was the result from the action you took, was there a positive outcome from the action. A few examples of the type of questions asked would be helpful just to get an idea. Also what strengths and competencies are they generally looking for. For example critical thinking, analytical skills etc.

[@lmaggs1996]

Correct - STARS: situation, task, action, result, self-reflection. I suppose the self-reflection is the result of the experience, allowing for lessons to be learned - so it's not a huge mistake if you forget about the R! :)
