Mock Interview

In a mock interview, a business professional meets one-on-one with a student and conducts a simulated job interview. Conducted in person or virtually, a mock interview gives the student the opportunity to practice professional dress and etiquette, as well as allows them to answer questions about themselves, their interests, and their personal qualities and to learn how to market themselves as prospective job candidates. It helps them learn what is expected in a job interview and improves the student’s self-presentation. Approximately 15 minutes should be devoted to a mock interview, with the remaining time being spent providing constructive feedback and allowing the student to ask the professional questions about their career.
