Overview

Looking for your first job after college can be stressful, especially if students are not prepared. Institutions of higher education need to help their students prepare now to job search later. This workshop will show students how to connect with the interviewer, express themselves confidently and distinguish themselves from other candidates. This workshop includes mock interviews that demonstrate both successful and unsuccessful interviews, as well as an action plan that students can use to prepare for future interviews.

Objectives

Students will learn to:

Express themselves more confidently in interviews
Distinguish themselves from other candidates
Use the power of informational interviewing
Identify proven ways to connect with interviewers
Be the "speaker" in the interview - not just the one answering questions
