General interview behavioural questions

I can't remember, it was in mid 2020 when I was taking part in multiple interviews for different graduate positions.

Look up the agency and see what they do. Have an interest in what they do. Don't use the same example across many questions. Don't ramble stay to the point.

Practice answering questions!

Read the website to see what we do, the attitude, major activities (media releases). Try and get your head around the breadth of work we do. Talk to people in the organisation, especially the team so you can talk intelligently about how you work in context.

Research on the company you're applying for

Think about the experience that you can use to demonstrate that you have the skills for the job (non-professional experience is relevant too). Be informed about the ACMA and be interested.
