I have an assessment event interview for a personal trainer position – any tips?
I already work for a gym but on a self employed basis so the interview was over in 10 minutes, he just said he liked to see i was enthustiatic about PT! Im a bit nervous, have tried to prepare but just wondering if anyone had any tips, or has been through anything like this themselves! Thanks in advance
Hi Anna,
Don’t be nervous. Just follow his instructions and understand what he is looking out of the interview with you and then do the task. I’m sure it will be something well within your experience as a trainer. The manager might very well give you a scenario of a potential client and then ask you to take him through the steps of assessing and then prescribing a program for this client. The manager might also ask you to take him through a short workout to see your style of instruction so just treat him like any other client :-)!…just don’t kill him…or do ;-)!
Best,
Harris
