Preparing for Your Mock Interview

During your next mentor meeting, on Tuesday 6/03, you will be participating in a Mock Interview with our mentor volunteers. In other words, you will simulating an actual job interview. The goal is to get you prepared for the real thing. Here's what you can expect:
1) You will be interviewed by a panel of 2 -3 mentors which will NOT include your own mentor.
2) They will ask you questions similar to what you would expect to be asked on a real job interview. The questions will be based on the Sample Interview Questions you worked on with your mentor at the last meeting.
3) The panel of mentors will evaluate you based on how you perform during the interview. Your grade in advisory will be partly based on this evaluation.

Here's what you need to do in order to have a successful interview:
1) Dress appropriately as if you were going to a real interview.
2) Practice your handshake and making positive eye contact. Your handshake should be firm, but not overpowering.
2) Come prepared to the interview with a copy of your resume.
3)Practice what you will say and know how you will answer each sample interview questions.
