Hi Guys


The advice I usually give on the presentation goes something like this: -

 

Keep to the six-slide limit, don't waste slides with a front page that says nothing but just introduces yourself and the subject, keep text down to a minimum, plenty of good quality pictures (maybe a picture of a construction drawing) on which you give the explanations, keep to one main subject and finally don't waste a slide with just "Any Questions?" on it - I can guarantee the panel will have questions.


If you are comfortable with it and are asked, allow them to raise questions during presentation, try not to go off at a tangent and try to make it a discussion - it is not intended to be an interrogation and nobody is going to offer you a job at the end of it. Keep it technical - Competences A&B is what you are presenting If you can bring items on C & E so be it.


Pick a subject you know inside out and back to front and get a colleague to quiz you on it and make any adjustments you think necessary. The time limit issue should be kept in mind but if you're taking question during the presentation your timings may go out of the window so don't worry about it.


Good luck - Stay safe - Regards Jim W
