How to ask for prayer before a job interview
A practical, private prayer request for a job interview, with words you can send to someone you trust.
Start with the situation
A job interview can bring hope and pressure at the same time. You may want prayer for preparation, confidence, wisdom, or the outcome itself.
Short request
“I have a job interview coming up. Would you pray for calm, wisdom, and the right words?”
A more private version
“I am more anxious about this interview than I expected. Please pray that I prepare well, stay present, and trust God with the outcome.”
What your prayer partner can pray for
- Ask for calm while preparing.
- Pray for clarity when answering difficult questions.
- Pray for wisdom about whether the role is a good fit.
After you send the request
After the interview, tell your prayer partner what happened and what you still need prayer for.
