Preparing for an interview can be nerve-wracking. A job interview can be as brief as 30 minutes with a hiring manager to several rounds that take most, if not all, of a day. Students can schedule mock interviews. At least two are recommended, with the first being no less than 10 days before (when possible). By preparing for an interview you will be more comfortable and confident with your responses.
The objective of the interviewer is to find out if you have the skills and motivation to perform the job and fit the organization's culture. A well-prepared candidate will be able to respond accordingly, have a few relevant questions to ask, and take mental note of the work environment to determine whether or not it would be a good fit for their personal and professional goals.
Additional interview resources are available in CareerBeam. Sample questions, tips, and the ability to record and review video mock interviews are available.
