About this listen
The STAR technique is a simple interview framework that helps you answer questions clearly by walking through a Situation, Task, Action, and Result.
It’s commonly used for behavioural interview questions, where employers want to understand how you’ve handled real situations in the past. STAR gives your answer a clear beginning, middle, and end, so you don’t ramble or skip important details.
By organizing your response this way, you make it easier for interviewers to follow your thinking, see your role in the situation, and understand the outcome of your actions. This is especially useful if you feel nervous in interviews or struggle to explain your experience on the spot.
If you want a clear breakdown of each part of the STAR technique and examples of how to use it effectively, you’ll find more detail in the blog
