What advice would you give to someone applying to this role?
As with any application, tailor it to Capacitas. Make sure you have some idea of what the job is and what skills you need/will need to build. Since we're a cloud consultancy at heart, you need to have an understanding of what the Cloud is, and how it is used in the business world. If you aren't sure - just do a little google research. If the research you're doing doesn't appeal to you, then applying for Capacitas might not be right for you.
On the topic of skills - make sure you evidence statements where you mention having them! For example, if you're applying for a service delivery role (consultant/analyst), then you need to be a good problem solver individually, but also in a team, so make sure that comes across in your application - don't just talk about individual projects, talk about team working! Even working as part of a team in a part-time job is extremely valuable. The second important thing is to review your technical skills, and consider whether you can upskill for the role. For example, as with most office jobs, we use a lot of Excel at Capacitas. Being better than the average person who applies with set you apart!
Do you have any interview tips?
Be yourself, be confident but not cocky, and don't give up even with tough questions. The interviewers are nice people, and they want you to succeed - they wouldn't be interviewing you if they didn't! Build a rapport with them and make sure you're actively listening to what they are telling you. If you don't understand something; clarify, so that you can make sure the answer you give is appropriate for the question you're being asked.
