What is the STAR method for interviews?

The STAR Method is an approach to answering behavioral interview questions by outlining situations in which you’ve demonstrated skills or handled challenges. STAR stands for:  

  • Situation: Describe the context and background of the scenario. What was happening? Set the stage with enough detail so the interviewer understands the context.
  • Task: Explain the task or challenge that you faced. What was your responsibility or role in this situation?
  • Action: Detail the actions you took to address the task or resolve the situation. Focus on what you personally did, highlighting your contributions and decisions.
  • Result: Share the outcome of your actions. What were the results? Be specific about how your efforts led to a positive conclusion, providing quantifiable results if possible. 

Explore our STAR method guide for actionable tips and sample answers to help you prepare for your next interview.

How do I prepare for a video interview?

Preparing for a video interview involves a few additional steps beyond traditional interview preparation. Here are a few tips to get started: 

  • Test your technology: Ensure your internet connection is strong and stable. Test your video conferencing platform ahead of time to ensure it’s working properly.
  • Choose the right location: Select a quiet, well-lit space with a neutral background that’s free from distractions. 
  • Dress professionally: Dress just as you would for an in-person interview. Choose professional attire that fits the company’s culture and looks polished on camera.
  • Practice eye contact and body language: Look directly into the camera to simulate eye contact rather than looking at the screen or yourself.
  • Practice in a mock video interview: Conduct a mock interview to practice answering questions on camera. 

Explore our guide on how to ace your video interview for tips on improving your eye contact, vocabulary, tone, and body language.
