How to prepare for a youth work interviewForget challenging young people – youth work interviews can sometimes be the scariest thing about being a youth worker!

This week’s Best Of Youth Workin’ It therefore collates our posts that offer tips and ideas for anyone who has a youth work or youth ministry interview.

1. How to dress for a youth work interview – Before thinking about what to say in the interview, you need to decide what to wear. This post gives some thoughts as to what will be the most appropriate attire for you.

2. Youth worker interview questions: part 1 – We then wrote a five part series listing different questions you may be asked and how you might go about answering them. This first part has 20 commonly asked questions.

3. Youth worker interview questions: part 2 – The second part has questions you might be asked about yourself and ways you may want to answer them.

4. Youth worker interview questions: part 3 – The third part has questions you might be asked about how you work with others and ways you may want to answer them.

5. Youth worker interview questions: part 4 – The fourth part has questions you might be asked about how you work with youth and how you deal with challenging situations and ways you may want to answer them.

6. Youth worker interview questions: part 5 – Finally, the fifth part has questions you might be asked that are role specific and ways you may want to answer them.
