[QUOTE="trainee4u, post: 213936, member: 30779"] I don't think there's too much you can do in the short term if you really suck, but you can definitely improve in the longer term. I am in the same boat - I've been told that my interviews, both video and in person, are terrible (paraphrasing slightly). There's something to be done - practise with AI, say (i think you can use vanilla ChatGPT or there are commercial tools), which will improve your skills. Apart from that there is STAR, which is the standard way of answering interview questions. In addition, there are different standard questions you can practise before the time - why do you want to work here, what makes us different from our competitors. There's potentially a question about a commercial awareness issue affecting their clients which you could prepare for. Also things like "how do you work in a team", but obviously diminishing returns the more questions you prepare as beyond the "what attracts you about this role" (which is like a 70-80% chance), the others won't necessarily come up.
