Limited experience does not mean no evidence
Graduate and early-career candidates often assume they need full-time professional examples for every interview answer. That is not always true.
Where graduate examples can come from
Useful examples can come from many places.
- University projects.
- Group assignments.
- Placements.
- Internships.
- Casual work.
- Volunteering.
- Committee roles.
- Tutoring or mentoring.
Turn a study project into evidence
A study project can work if you make your contribution clear. Explain the challenge, your role, your action and the result.
Practice with role material
Read the role material and choose examples that match it. Ask what behaviours the role needs and which examples show your contribution most clearly.
