Practise Swedish for a job interview
A job interview can be difficult in any language. In Swedish, it can feel even harder when you know what you want to say but cannot find the words quickly enough.
Kompis helps you practise realistic Swedish job interview conversations before the real interview. Speak, make mistakes, try again and build confidence at your own pace.
Prepare for questions you are likely to hear
Practise answering common questions in Swedish, including:
- Berätta lite om dig själv.
- Varför söker du det här jobbet?
- Vilka erfarenheter har du?
- Vad är du bra på?
- När kan du börja?
- Har du några frågor till oss?
You can also practise speaking about your previous work, education, strengths, availability and motivation.
Learn Swedish you can use in the interview
The goal is not to memorise perfect answers. The goal is to feel ready to communicate clearly when the conversation becomes real.
- Explaining your experience in simple Swedish.
- Asking someone to repeat or explain a question.
- Taking a moment to think before answering.
- Talking about what you can do, even if your Swedish is still developing.
- Asking thoughtful questions at the end of an interview.
Practise without pressure
You do not need to worry about interrupting someone, making mistakes in front of an employer or forgetting a word. Practise the same situation as many times as you need.
Start with a simple interview scenario. Then make it more challenging as your confidence grows.
