Mastering Behavioral Interviews:
Stand Out with Your Story
with: Shelley Jensen-Decker

Are you prepared to confidently answer, “Tell me about a time when…” in your next job interview?
Behavioral interviews are one of the most common formats used by employers to evaluate candidates — and your ability to tell a clear, compelling story can make all the difference. In this interactive workshop, job seekers will learn how to identify their strongest experiences, align them with employer expectations, and deliver answers that showcase skills, problem-solving, and professionalism.
What You'll Learn:

• The STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) and how to use it effectively
• Common behavioral interview questions and how to prepare for them
• Techniques to turn everyday experiences into powerful interview stories
• How to stay focused, confident, and authentic during the interview
