Event description

Mock Interviews at Forrester High School

This year the S5 year group at Forrester High School has been taking part in the 'Inform, Inspire, Hire' Employability Programme. This programme sees employers from a variety of sectors deliver workshops to the whole year cohort on a variety of key topics focussing on employability, skills and pathways. Workshops delivered this session include:
• Online Appearance
• Personal Finance
• CV & Cover Letter
• Interview Skills

The programme culminates with each pupil receiving a short mock interview from an employer to authenticate their experience from someone within the world of work.

Forrester High School would like to invite business leaders to support the programme by conducting mock interviews. Supporting employers will receive template questions that are to be used and will have the opportunity to provide pupils with feedback. Each pupil will have a 10 minute interview slot.

We look forward to welcoming you to the school.
