Job Interview- presentation advice please help!!!

I have a job interview tommorow and have to give a presentation on a project.

Details and preperation will happen on the day and i will be given 45 mins and can use power point or flip chart.

I am quite good at presentations, but never done an adhoc one.

Has anyone got any advice on key tips, do's / or dont's

I was going to keep it very simple, titles and bullet points and talk around it... so using bullet points as prompts mainly.

Any advice much appreciated.... really want the job :-)

    Hiya

    Since you don't know the title yet, you can't pre-pare the content (and thats the point of the interview), but you can have a stab at it.

    Think about the job and company you are applying for. Whats up there at the top of the job description as being the most important skill/task?

    You can also think about the structure of the presentation. Yuo need a "This is me and my presentation" type slide. A intro slide. At the end, a "in conclusion" type slide.

    If you were advertising for the job, what would you ask?

    Are you allowed to bring with you a setup powerpoint presentaions that you just add content? That would save time......

    start middle and an end.

    everything you've said makes me think you're going to do well. just keep calm, and don't expect it to be perfect.

    can't be done in 45 mins (unless it's full of BS)
    Remember the time he ate my goldfish? And you lied and said I never had goldfish. Then why did I have the bowl Bart? Why did I have the bowl?
