Make your responses as structured and concise as possible. Avoid rambling or delivering roundabout answers. Choose your words carefully. Avoid using words that have negative connotations. Instead, use positive professional adjectives to describe yourself and your situations, such as persistent, genuine, patient, enthusiastic, disciplined, and passionate. Spend some time looking up terms that you feel best apply to you or are naturally part of your vocabulary. When speaking, moderate your tone and the speed at which you talk.

I am most interested in Audit and Assurance. This is because having worked in audit in Ghana, I am excited to see how my experience in audit in Ghana will differ from audit in the UK, using the same reporting standards.
