Interview

Select the job description from the entrepreneur profile for your interview, and be prepared to share with your assessor which one you have chosen at the start of your interview.

The assessor will base your interview on your chosen job description.


Presentation

You should prepare a presentation in advance of the assessment centre. Prepare your presentation in response to the presentation brief.

You can use PowerPoint to support your presentation. The assessor will invite you to share your screen when it’s your turn to present. Please ensure your PowerPoint is downloaded to the desktop of the device you will be using on the day of the assessment centre.

Entrepreneur presentation topics:

  • Present your business plan for a new idea, product or service to include business goals and how you plan to make a profit.

  • Think about how you will market your business and appeal to your customers.

  • How will you fund and organise your business?

  • What are the best resources and tools to help entrepreneurs set up their first business? When and how can they be used most effectively?

  • Identify an entrepreneur who inspires you and explain why.

  • Present the highlights of their career journey and what you can learn from them
