Hi all,
I've applied for a job in the Civil Service and been successful in getting an interview. As part of the interview, I have to give a 10 minute presentation on "Faced with a change to our processes that directly impacts our external stakeholders, what methods would you use to communicate this change"
I've done presenting and training in the past so I'm reasonably comfortable with doing it. But this is the first time I've needed to do it in an interview so is there anything specific I should consider with doing an interview presentation?
I've not worked for the team this job is but I've worked around it so I know who the stakeholders are and have a good idea of their processes already. So far, my timing for the presentation is about 7 minutes on the usual guff of communicating change; consider your target your audience and what will change for them, don't rely on emails alone, get feedback etc. with some specific example of previous changes the department the job is in has gone through as I'm assuming this is what the prompt really means than the literal method of communication being a list of email or speak to them on the phone or in person which would be a short presentation.
Lastly, most presentations I've done in the past have been on larger changes or training so a Q&A at the end makes sense. Part of the role is going to be presenting so I feel I should include a Q&A as I would normally though it kinda seems a weird addition for an interview giving the general purpose of an interview is to ask me, the interviewee, questions.
