Congratulations. You made the shortlist. Now comes the interview. While it's not rocket science, it is work to pull off a great presentation. Here are 10 essential things to consider before every presentation.
- What Is The Client Looking For In The Interview?
Is there a strict interview agenda that you have to cover? Does the client want to know about your past relevant experience? Your project team? Your approach to their project? Have you asked the client what they're looking for?
- Srategizing And Designing The Interview.
Entire books are written about this, but the basic questions are: 1) what is the content of your presentation, and 2) what is the most effective way to convey that content? Everyone has a power point show that says they deliver projects on time and on budget--that's a meaningless statement these days. Ask yourself probing questions that demand concrete answers when designing your presentation.
