The goal of this tool is to help identify how resilient learners are and help them realise practical experience and examples of employment – and/or live-related and to be better prepared for job interviews with potential employers. Behavioural event interview is interviewing based on discovering how the interviewee acted in a specific situation (mostly employment- and/or live-related).
