Interview Coaching for Chaplaincy Posts Webinar

11th November 2026, 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Boost your confidence and sharpen your chaplaincy interview skills with expert tips and real‑world examples.

Although selection processes often involve more than just a panel interview, an interview is still a critical part of the process. How you do at the interview will significantly impact your chances of being offered a job. Good interview preparation reduces the inevitable nerves and anxiety associated with interviews, meaning that you can present yourself in a confident, self-assured and articulate way. Drawing on their experience of interviewing, this interactive webinar will offer a range of tips and skills to help enhance your interview performance, including:

• Structuring answers well and using language that resonates with your audience.

• Developing good examples to answer scenario-based questions.

• Preparing insightful questions to ask yourself.
