Yes! I Want To Pass My Interview!The Skills and Qualities Needed to be an Event Manager or Event Planner
There are several important skills and qualities needed to be an Event Manager or Event Planner and these are detailed below.
COMMUNICATION SKILLS – Exceptional communication skills are one of the most important. You must communicate with absolute clarity and be able to listen carefully to people’s suggestions, ideas, and issues if you want the event to run smoothly.
RELATIONSHIP-BUILDING SKILLS – You must possess outstanding people skills and understand the importance of building long-term relationships with stakeholders, suppliers, venue owners, and contractors.
PROBLEM-SOLVING CAPABILITIES – You will need to be an exceptional and innovative problem solver. If you cannot solve problems quickly and confidently, you will never succeed as an Event Manager.
ORGANIZING AND PLANNING SKILLS – You must be highly organized and an efficient planner whilst also having an in-depth knowledge of the event management process.
PROJECT MANAGEMENT SKILLS – You need to be a good project manager and have the resilience and fortitude to respond quickly to issues that can cause an event to fail.
BUDGET PLANNING SKILLS – As an Event Manager or Event Planner you must be good at budget planning, be frugal in your approach to finances and be able to deliver an event within the pre-determined financial allowance.
As an Event Manager, you need to be flexible and be prepared to get your hands dirty. No job should ever be beneath you and you must be prepared to get stuck in if people let you down or there is a shortage of staff.
5 ESSENTIAL TIPS FOR PASSING YOUR EVENT MANAGER INTERVIEW
The following 5 job interview tips are designed to help you be the standout candidate during your event manager interview. If you have an event planner or event manager interview coming up with any organization whatsoever, be sure to read and implement the following tips!
EVENT MANAGEMENT INTERVIEW TIP #1
If you fail to read the job description for the event management role you are being interviewed for, you will not pass your interview! Before you attend your interview, download a copy of the job description and make sure you have the experience needed that meets the essential criteria listed. Be prepared for behavioral interview questions that assess your previous experience within this or similar roles you have occupied.
EVENT MANAGEMENT INTERVIEW TIP #2
Have a thorough understanding of the event management process before you attend your job interview. Be prepared for the interview question, how do you plan events? If you can answer this question by referring to specific event management steps, you are more likely to pass the interview!
EVENT MANAGEMENT INTERVIEW TIP #3
Before you attend your Event Manager interview, think carefully about why you want to work for their organization. Write down a list of things that have attracted you to work for their company. Perhaps you are impressed with their track record of achievement? Perhaps you want to work there because it is a place that runs events to a very high standard? Regardless of the reason(s), have an answer already planned and prepared for the interview question, why do you want to work for us?
EVENT MANAGEMENT INTERVIEW TIP #4
Event managers are meticulous planners and organizers. During your answers to the interview questions, provide evidence of where you have previously successfully managed a team of people, overcome difficult challenges, and delegated tasks effectively.
EVENT MANAGEMENT INTERVIEW TIP #5
At the end of your event management job interview, you will have the opportunity to ask the interviewer some questions of your own. Here are three smart questions to ask the hiring manager once your interview draws to a close.
QUESTION – What’s frustrated you about events that have taken place historically?
QUESTION – Who sets the budget for your events and would I be involved in the decision-making process?
QUESTION – How often do you run events and how many would you need me to organize for you throughout the year?
