One thing I always do before an interview is prep, but for me it's an ongoing exercise because this kind of thing can also be used at a review or appraisal.

I regularly maintain and update a list of scenarios and questions I might be asked which relate to my current role.  That way I am always prepared and can review my notes at any time.

Take some time  Cathy and think of past scenarios, even minor ones, which you can use as examples.  Type the main aspects in bullet point form so you can discuss easily at interview.  Review this regularly.

It is important to note strengths and weaknesses and know the difference between each.  For example one of my weaknesses is that I have high standards and demand the same of others, so while some see that as a flaw, it can also be turned into a positive.
