5 TIPS FOR PASSING THE PROJECT MANAGER INTERVIEW!
TIP #1 – Project manager’s need to utilize a diverse set of skills, qualities and attributes if they are to be successful at interview. These include being able to demonstrate an ability to manage people, time and resources, motivate staff and tackle underperformance, ensure all projects are delivered on time and to budget, communicate effectively with numerous members of the project team and stakeholders and also be able to manage multiple-tasks all at once.
TIP #2 – Prior to the project manager interview, ensure you have a thorough understanding of the project life-cycle. Whilst it is not essential to stick rigidly to the ‘formal’ project management life-cycle, it is advisable to talk about a cycle that the interview panel will be familiar with. Of course, if you have an innovative and unique way of managing projects successfully, it would be a great thing to discuss at the interview.
TIP #3 – Remain calm under extreme pressure and be able to build long-term relationships with team members, suppliers and external stakeholders are both key qualities required of a competent project manager. During the project manager interview, talk about the skills and attributes you already have that will benefit you when managing multiple projects for your prospective employer or organization.
TIP #4 – Project management procurement is another vital part of the project management process, and one that may be discussed during the interview. Ensure you have your own response ready that demonstrates you have a proven track record for delivering each project on time, on budget and to specification.
TIP #5 – You will undoubtedly be asked numerous behavioural, situational and hypothetical interview questions during the project manager interview. When responding to questions of this nature, we recommend you use the STAR interview method which will ensure your answers are solid, specific and structured in a way that will gain you maximum marks. Within the Project Manager Interview guide, which you can access within 2 minutes flat, we have provided you with ready-made answers to behavioural-type questions.
