Selling yourself in an interview is easier said than done. Anyone who has had the pleasure of my mindset masterclass lectures ( or not! 2+ hours per session of listening to me is easier said than done!) will know I always refer back to the following points when talking about transitioning from uni to the real world regarding how you approach a project, what you do and how quickly. This is what makes you an assest. These are some key points what I like to hear from a candidate:

1. VALUE – “I added value to the space / design by……”
2. SPEED – To save time I standardised the following …..
3. SPACE – I organised the following areas based upon…………
4. HUMAN – I set out my design based on the ergonomic requirements….
5. SKILL – I used my knowledge and abilities………….

You want to inadvertendly sell yourself by telling them via your portfolio discussions:
How you will bring VALUE to their company at a junior level.
How you will save them money due to your SPEED of production.
You understand how to plan and organise a SPACE properly re client, customer & contractor.
You have a good understanding of the HUMAN scale aspect of a project.
Your SKILL and knowledge levels makes you an assest at your level as you are ahead of the curve.
