Train like a professional

Got a high stakes interview coming up? We’ve got you covered.

Workshop your interview with WAAPA.

90 minutes, one-to-one with a senior WAAPA practitioner. Skills, frameworks, practice, development, and live feedback specific to you - applied to real material in a private studio at our brand new city campus.

A different kind of professional development, built on WAAPA's world class reputation of training by doing.

Who is The Interview Intensive for?

This intensive is for professionals preparing for a high-stakes interview. A brand new role. An internal promotion panel. A final round with senior leadership. A media interview. The people who get the role are rarely the most qualified on paper - they are the ones who win over the interviewer and communicate their value clearly when it counts. This workshop will prepare you to be one of them.

This Intensive is for you if any of these sound familiar:

• You have an important interview for a new role, a promotion, or a internal move.

• You've been overlooked for opportunities you thought you should have got.

• You interview well on paper but freeze when the conversation gets specific.

• You've got the technical credentials, but the interview process lets you down.

• You want to articulate your value clearly, without over-explaining or underselling.

• You want to walk into the room composed, confident, and ready to perform.

What You'll Work On

• Your opening - get your interviewer on side in the first few vital minutes.

• Your narrative - the clear, confident story of who you are and where you're going.

• Articulating your value without over-explaining, apologising, or underselling.

• Answering the hard questions - including the ones you hope they won't ask.

• Composure under scrutiny - pace, presence, and control under pressure.

• Asking sharp, considered questions.

• Managing nerves - practical techniques to stay calm and composed.

What You'll Walk Away With

• A clear set of interview skills and frameworks you can apply immediately.

• A refined, practised version of your ‘why me’ case for the interview.

• Prepared responses to the hard questions.

• A warm up and preparation plan to walk into your interview with confidence.

How it works

You'll spend 90 focused minutes one-to-one with a senior WAAPA practitioner in a private studio. The session is built around real material - we assess where you are, introduce the skills and frameworks that matter most for your situation, and work on your content with live feedback. The shape of the session is tailored to you - what you need, what you're preparing for, and where the time is best spent.

Not working towards any specific interview?

No problem. We have you covered. We will workshop an interview scenario with you so you can practise the skills you need to land any interview that comes up in the future.

Why a 90 minute intensive?

A traditional one-day workshop puts you in a room with 20 to 25 other people, working through generic exercises, with maybe 10 minutes of personalised attention if you're lucky. The frameworks are useful. The group dynamic is energising. But the practical reality is that you spend most of the day watching other people learn.

Our 90-minute private intensives are built differently. You work one-to-one with a senior WAAPA practitioner, on real material, in a private studio. Every minute of the session is focused on you. Your delivery, your habits, your situation, your goals. The feedback is immediate, specific, and rehearsed in the room rather than left to apply later.

This is why our clients consistently tell us they get more from a 90 minute, one on one session with us than from a full day anywhere else.
