Job Interview Preparation
Land the job of your dreams in English
We carefully match you with a trainer who specialises in interview strategies and communication skills. Our trainer will prepare you for commonly asked (but difficult to answer!) interview questions and offer advice on your verbal and non-verbal communication skills. You and your trainer will simulate the interview itself (with or without video feedback) to practise and build your confidence.
Presentation Dry Runs
Deliver in style
You’ve spent hours putting together a presentation or sales pitch and now you want some honest feedback from an objective third party? A presentation dry run (or two or three) provides you with the chance to practise holding your presentation or impending sales pitch and to get advice, tips and tricks for improvement from a highly qualified trainer who specialises in presentation training. You can run through your presentation in a one-on-one or, if you are holding the presentation in a team, a small group setting.
Using video recordings, the trainer’s feedback to you or your team will not only focus on language issues, but also on essential communication factors such as body language, pitch and intonation, confidence and the ability to respond to questions from the audience.
