Practice Interviews
Nervous about an upcoming job interview?
There is more to an interview than the questions, and to do well, you have to be prepared. Did you know that you make a first impression the minute you meet someone?
What kind of impression do you give?
How will you dress? When will you arrive?
What will you do while you are waiting?
Do you have a good handshake?
What kinds of questions could you be asked, and how would you answer them?
The Career Center staff can give you sample interview questions and even conduct a mock interview to help you prepare.
