What is the STAR METHOD
STAR is an acronym that stands for Situation, Task, Action, and Result.
First things first, let’s discuss behavioral questions.
These questions inquire about situations and problems faced at work and help the interviewer understand how you handle them.
Behavioral questions always require you to tell a story of how you faced a specific situation at work, and how you dealt with it.
Questions like:
Tell me about a time when you were faced with a challenging situation. ...
Do you usually set goals at work? ...
Give me an example of a time you made a mistake at work.
Have you ever faced conflict with a coworker? ...
Tell me about a time when you handled the pressure well.
And that’s where the STAR method comes in!
STAR is an acronym that stands for Situation, Task, Action, and Result.
Remember, your interviewer is just a person like you; they're not scary. Try to make a connection with them so that you have a good rapport.
You got this .
