Congratulations! If you’ve been matched for a study-relevant student job at Studaro, you’re already on the path to valuable work experience that complements your studies. Now it’s time to prepare for your online interview with one of our Talent Coaches, who are here to help match you with an opportunity that aligns with your goals and interests.
Here’s what you need to prepare and how to make the most out of your online interview.
1. Update Your CV
An up-to-date CV gives us insight into your academic background, work experience, skills, and achievements. Here’s what we recommend including:
• Current education details: List the studies you’re pursuing, any relevant projects, internships, or specializations.
• Past work experience: Add details of any previous jobs, especially those related to your field of study. Don’t worry if it’s not extensive—every job experience counts.
• Skills and strengths: Think about the skills you’ve gained, whether they’re technical, interpersonal, or organizational. This will help us understand what you bring to the table and match you with the best-fit role.
• Extracurriculars: We’d love to hear about any volunteering, sports, or activities that give us a fuller picture of who you are!
Take a little time to polish your CV before the interview so we get the most accurate snapshot of your experience. This CV is what we will use to pitch your qualities to the company you might end up for your study relevant student job, so give it the detailed attention it needs.
2. Prepare an Introduction: Tell Us About You
Be ready to share a brief introduction about yourself! This helps us get to know you and understand your personality, which is key to matching you with the right job and company. Here’s what we’d love to hear:
• Your studies: What degree are you pursuing, and what are your main areas of interest? If you have any specific career goals, mention those as well.
• Your dream job: Picture yourself in the future—what job are you aiming for? Even if you’re still figuring it out, sharing your interests and goals will help us suggest positions that might be a great stepping stone.
• What jobs you don’t want: This is equally important. Are there roles or tasks that don’t interest you or are unrelated to your field of study? We’ll use this information to refine your job search, so don’t hesitate to let us know.
Your introduction doesn’t need to be long, but it should cover these basics to help us understand who you are and what you’re looking for.
