Interview Preparation/Mock Interviews

Career Development Center works with students preparing for job or internship interviews. Students are able to set up a time to work with a counselor who can help them become familiar and more comfortable with the essential elements of an interview. We encourage students to schedule a mock interview prior to their first interview. During mock interviews, a counselor will ask questions related to the student’s resume and experience. Upon completion of the question and answer period, the counselor will offer feedback on how the student can improve upon any weaknesses shown during the interview.

Furthermore, Career Development Center offers workshops on the interviewing process that assist students in learning more about the do's and don'ts of an interview. Workshops can be scheduled for specific classes or student organizations.

The following links provide information about how to ace an interview, how to conduct an informational interview, how to research a company/organization (for a cover letter, before an interview etc…), and how to follow-up after an interview:
