Job Interview Questions and Answers Perfection

S - Situation

You use a few sentences to describe the situation and brief background (if relevant). I literally mean only 3-4 sentences to state what the situation was.

T- Task

You then describe to the interviewer what the task was that was given to you to execute. Again, be specific and clear about what it was you had to do.

A - Actions

This part of the answer is all about what and how you performed the execution of the assigned task. Focus on your specific actions (and not the group's actions) and describe it using good, positive adjectives. This is your most important part of the answer and you should therefore spend the most time on this part of your answer.

R-Result

Always remember to have an outcome or result associated with what you specifically did. Again, you are able to mention the group's result here too but put all the focus on the part of the outcome or result that you were specifically responsible for.
Example of how to implement the STAR for your job interview questions and answers follows below.
