1. Combining
Visuals
and
Theoretical
Application
for teaching Behavioral Interviewing

2. Objectives
for this presentation
1. Create behavioral interviewing
content and visuals for
Bookbuilder.
2. Use Theoretical Applications
(Gagne, UDL, DI, Marzano, UBD,
Reigeluth, ARCS) for instructional
lesson planning

3. Pre-Planning and Setup
Introductory Video:
Discussion about not
getting a job because of
behavioral interviewing
Theoretical Applications:
Gagne - gain attention
Marzano – cues
ARCS - increase interest

4. Pre-Planning and Setup
Objectives:
1. Define behavioral interviewing and
compare it to traditional interviewing
2. Describe the steps used to prepare
for a behavioral interview
3. Practice behavioral interviewing
Theoretical Applications:
Gagne – Inform learner of objectives
Marzano – Set objectives
UBD – Established goals

5. Lesson Opening & Body
Definition:
Define behavioral interviewing, using
• Audio definition
• Table comparing behavioral to
traditional interviewing
• Sample questions
Theoretical Applications:
Gagne – Present stimulus material
UDL – Multiple media and format
Marzano – Nonlinguistic
representations; Identify
similarities/differences

6. Lesson Opening & Body
Sample Job Announcement:
When describing the steps in preparing for a behavioral
interview, provide a sample job announcement and
highlight needed skills. (next slide)
Theoretical Applications:
Gagne – Provide learner guidance
UDL – Multiple media and format
Marzano – Nonlinguistic
representations;
Reigeluth – Within-lesson sequence

7. Sample Job Announcement:

8. Lesson Opening & Body
Behavioral Interview Questions:
When describing the steps in preparing for a behavioral
interview, provide links to behavioral interview
“question banks,” as well as sample behavioral
interview questions (next slide).
Theoretical Applications:
Gagne – Provide learner guidance
UDL – Multiple media and format
Marzano – Nonlinguistic
representations; Identify
similarities/differences

10. Lesson Opening & Body
Behavioral Interview Questions:
When describing the steps in preparing for a behavioral
interview, describe the STAR method of answering
behavioral interview questions by using a graphic
organizer and a sample audio response (next slides).
Theoretical Applications:
Gagne – Provide learner guidance
UDL – Multiple media and format
Marzano – Nonlinguistic
representations
ARCS – Emphasize relevance

12. STAR answer to the question,
“Describe a time you went above an
beyond for a coworker.”

13. Lesson Closing & Evaluate
Practicing the Interview:
When describing how to practice for a behavioral
interview, provide images of practicing and a video of a
mock interview (next slide).
Theoretical Applications:
