Ways to stand out

- If you have used AutoCAD in coursework or a project, be ready to describe what you drew or measured.
- Practise explaining how you would estimate quantities and cost for a simple piece of construction work, step by step.
- Read up on what a tender is and what goes into a proposal, so the terms are familiar in an interview.
- Keep a sample of your own writing, such as a project report, to show you can document clearly.
