This document provides tips for competence-based interviews. It recommends making unconscious skills conscious, using recent and relevant examples from best experiences, showing research into the role, keeping complex topics succinct, and sounding confident. Competencies are skills and knowledge needed to perform tasks like driving, writing reports, or creating presentations. Competence-based interviews assess if applicants can perform required tasks, how they would do so, and what behaviors they would use. The document advises telling stories using the STAR method and focusing on planning, problem-solving, budgets, partnerships, leadership, performance management, project delivery, procurement, and politics.
