What is a Senior Exit Interview?

During a Senior Exit Interview, students  sit one-on-one with an interviewer for 10-15 minutes. Your interviewer will look at your resume, possibly talk with you about it, and then ask you four questions from a predefined list of Senior Exit Interview Questions. 

Seniors are required to complete an Exit Interview prior to graduation. The purpose is to provide students with interview experience and to gain feedback on student preparedness for our district's goals. These interviews cap the high school experience and ask students to articulate their future career plans.   

When is the interview?

Senior Exit Interviews are held on the 3rd Wednesday in March each year, in the Liberty Library. Interview times will be assigned in 15-minute intervals from 8-10am (last name A-L) and 3-5pm (last name M-Z). Specific interview times will be advertised closer to the date.  

Seniors who finish their Xello lessons before January 31st will have the opportunity to sign up for an early Senior Exit Interview. Early Interviews will be held on Wednesday mornings starting in January. These interview spots will be offered on a first-come, first-serve basis and are advertised during the first semester of the school year.

I am a community member, can I volunteer to help?

The College & Career Center will be seeking people to help with our LHS Senior Exit Interviews which occur on the 3rd Wednesday in March. We rely upon community volunteers to help interview our Seniors and make this high school capstone experience a success. It’s a wonderful opportunity to interact in a positive way with our students. 

Sign ups are advertised each February. If you’re over 21, comfortable conducting short interviews, and can donate 2 hours of your time, please sign up to help!
