Event description
Inspire our students
In these sessions, business leaders hold mock interviews, which are an emulation of a job interview used for training purposes. The exercise usually resembles a real interview as closely as possible, for the purpose of providing a learning experience for students.
There are approximately 250 students in Year 11 and they will hopefully meet with business leaders one-to-one all based in the same hall. The mock interviews will hopefully last about 8-10 mins, with some time for feedback at the end of each interview. The students will have prepared ahead of time and understand this is a great learning opportunity to practice their skills and build their confidence. They will hopefully bring a copy of their CV with them to the mock interview as well.
