More on interview questions:

What are three positive things your last boss would say about you?”

A gift of a question, this is a great time to sing your praises using someone else’s words. Top tip here is to try to include one thing that shows your ability to do the job, one thing that shows your commitment to the work, and one thing that shows you’re a great person to have in a team. For example, “My boss has told me that I am the best sound engineer he has ever had. He knows he can always rely on me, even in a high pressure event, and he likes the way my sense of humour helps the team work together.”

Good luck! Get in touch with Live Recruitment if you have any specific questions – we’re always happy to give advice on jobhunting.
