The first thing you should have probably asked is "Self, What are they going to ask me in that interview?" For that, please refer to my description Questions recruiters are likely to ask in an interview. After you've read through that, read on in this article!
About Stars In Space
Now that you know recruiters are very likely to ask you behavioral questions, the next thing to do is to shape out what they are seeing for in an ideal response. And the remarkable thing is that there is a systematic response you can give to every single ask they can throw at you! You just have to know how to formulate it. That's where I come in.

Spectroscopy: The Key to the Stars: Reading the Lines in Stellar Spectra (Patrick Moore's Practical Astronomy Series) Overview
This is the first non-technical book on spectroscopy written specifically for practical amateur astronomers. It includes all the science necessary for a qualitative understanding of stellar spectra, but avoids a mathematical treatment which would alienate many of its intended readers. Any amateur astronomer who carries out observational spectroscopy and who wants a non-technical account of the physical processes which determine the intensity and profile morphology of lines in stellar spectra will find this is the only book written specially for them. It is an ideal companion to existing books on observational amateur astronomical spectroscopy.

In my very first interview freshman year (with general Electric), I idea I was providing great answers, had some great experiences to share, etc. I look at it now, and it's no surprise I didn't hear back from them. I even wonder how fast it took the recruiter to throw away my resume.
Here's an example of mine of what not to do... The interviewer asked me "Tell me about a time you demonstrated leadership." To which I responded fairly naturally "Well...I was Senior Patrol Leader in Boy Scouts for several years, that's probably my best example of leadership."
The interviewer was nice and tried to help me through the rest of the interview, but honestly, it was a train-wreck. I hope you can see why. Now I know you won't ever do whatever quite that bad, and I wrote this description to make sure of it.
Recruiters who use behavioral questions are seeing for responses in what's called the Star format. That breaks down into:
Situation
Task
Actions Taken
Results
As long as you answer behavioral questions in that format, you cannot go wrong! And the cool part about it is that it flows in a logical order that keeps you on track. By practicing this format, you are guaranteed to answer questions fully and concisely.
So let's get down to the details of the Situation component. The Situation is basically setting the stage for your response with the relevant background information. This includes where and when you were working (company, how old/what year in school), and maybe a bit of info on the qoute you faced.
The Task blends slightly with the Situation, and is just as simple. This is something along the lines of "I was assigned to do x." Plain and simple, it may be the most level forward part of your response. Keep in mind that it also sets up the measuring stick for your results, so be sure that it is verily what you were assigned to do!
The Actions measure of your response should be where the meat of your answer is. You need to take this opening to say "I performed xyz prognosis and used abc tools to do so." or "I led the group by doing abc." You also need to reconsider how technically savvy your interviewer is. If she/he is an engineer, then you can feel free to go into a few (but not too many!) details about what you did. If you get an Hr person doing the interview, don't even try to go into details, it probably won't help!
The Results should also be very easy, but is without ask the most important part of your response. As interviewers and fellowships are seeing for candidates who have been very productive in their past jobs and experiences, this is where they look to decide if you are person they want to hire. Use this opening to feature your results, and their impact on the company: awards, cost savings, sales made, output improvement, etc. Don't short turn yourself on this section, its essential that you feature every definite impact that you made!
I also must warn you not to exaggerate or lie about your accomplishments! This doesn't ever help whatever in the process, especially if a company does their homework by calling your in case,granted references to ask about you!
Finally, your response should take almost 3-5 minutes total. Any longer, and you've lost the concentration of your interviewer. Any shorter, and you probably haven't gotten your message over either.
A good interviewer will also probe you with questions like "Tell me more about that" or will guide you along with "So what was the corollary of that?" All I can say is don't rely on them to help you along. Ace it the first time through!
Here is an example of one of my responses all put together. See if you can pick out each section. I used this response typically for a ask along the lines of "Tell me about a time you faced a difficult technical challenge."
"While working at Nasa, Kennedy Space Center, I was in an club that was doing preliminary form work for the activate Pad systems of new rockets we are using to go to the Moon and Mars. We received Flight vehicle Commodity Loading requirements from Johnson Space town and Marshall Space Center, and then designed the activate Pad accordingly."
"My boss had originally given an assignment to a contractor and was not happy with their progress. I was assigned to take over the project, lead the contractor, and come up with manifold conceptual solutions for providing a specified whole of liquid helium to the vehicle on the activate pad and cost estimates for each method within 2 weeks."
"To do this, I learned as much as I could about liquid helium, utilizing in-house resources such as reference books, other citizen in the department knowledgeable on the subject, etc. I carefully manifold options: beginning with atmospheric liquid helium, or with pressurized gaseous ambient helium, the use of expansion valves, compressors, heat exchangers, etc. I learned about heat exchanger design, heat exchanger fluids, efficiency/effectiveness, etc. I worked with heat exchanger fellowships to get details, and had the contractor do detail work here."
"I also knew very little about cost estimating, so I worked with the contractor (who had sense here) to learn broad strokes and details here. I also worked back and forth with the contractor to ensure that technical details were correct."
"In the end, I wrote a technical description to summarize all data, assumptions, and all so that it could be verily reviewed by peers, and verily applied in the hereafter after I had left for school. The idea study and cost assessment were turned in on time to my boss, who was pleased. In the end, we created a detailed 35 page study report, which was sent to citizen at Marshall Space Flight town and Johnson Space town who gave it their thumbs up. The format I used for the description was standardized as "Boilerplate" for the club reports, and I was awarded a Nasa On The Spot Award."
This response fit neatly into about 3-4 minutes, and covers all of the components of the Star format. Interviewers loved it (and told me that they did) because it flowed so well and I had demonstrated remarkable results. I encourage you to write out your examples too, as this can make them clearer and simpler. Good Luck!
