Executive coach Sharon Hull advises job seekers to use the PARL (Problem, Action, Result, Learning) approach when answering hard interview questions. Hull suggests those not even on the job hunt start compiling anecdotes to use later. Gather information in a document. When the interview time comes, Hull says to categorise questions into ones you anticipate an interviewer will ask, ones you hope they ask, and those you are anxious to be asked.
