Latchel uses the STAR technique in our interviews. The STAR interview method focuses on behavioral and situational interview questions. STAR stands for: situation, task, action, result.

The interviewers will ask behavioral questions to determine whether they are a good fit for the Operations team. By using the STAR strategy, your referral can be sure they’re fully addressing the question, while also demonstrating how they were able to overcome previous challenges and be successful.

Your referral should research this technique, and come to the interview prepared to answer questions with clear and concise responses using real-life examples.

Your referral should also be familiar with Latchel's Leadership Principles.
