Hi I'm wondering on the best answer I should use for ''a time you've been on a training course over 2 weeks''. Would someone with good experience or ideally been involved in interviewing people with competency based questions let me inbox you my experience to see which is strongest?
Thanks!
It's a difficult one sometimes. Ideally it would be something like signalling school, or some sort of emergency services course (recruitment/driving etc.), but as with most competency based questions, with a little thinking outside the box, seemingly mundane examples can be made to fit the question. It all depends on your background. I struggled with an answer when asked this one but as far as I recall I was only asked it at my DMI rather than MMI? I used an apprenticeship I had undertaken and emphasised that there was mainly self-learning required and I had to take responsibility for my own learning through use of supplied resources, as well as remain focussed and self-motived and disciplined.
They're looking for evidence that you'd be able to all intents and purposes go back to school for a number of weeks and will be able to adapt. Hope this helps, Good luck.
