I've got an interview next week, were I have been asked to prepare a 15 minute presentation explaining my knowledge of QEHS.

Has anyone else been asked this in the past, if so how did you tackle it

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Sounds like they want you to regurgitate your CV. However without seeing the job description I am assuming that they are more interested in your presentation skills. Does the role involve the delivery of training or presentations to senior management ? I had to give a presentation of my own choice for an interview. I chose ISO 45001 as my choice. Did not get the job but they liked my presentation skills and realised that I could effectively deliver training. You need to work out is it really your QHSE knowledge they want or your presentation skills ?

Thanks for the reply, I'm thinking its the same, how I present myself, I don't think the company want applicants to carry out training as such, but could see how you would be presenting infront of their work force

Have you thought about what QEHS is likely to mean to those who are interviewing you?

What are challenges they are likely to face (and don't forget the Q part of the job!
