Interviewing

Successful Interviewing Milestone

To be successful in securing an internship before your senior year, the Career Center's expectation is that you will achieve an interviewing milestone by learning the techniques of successful interviewing before the end of your junior year. What is successful interviewing? As you may guess, the variety of styles of interviews is vast, but it is possible to learn to answer ten commonly-asked questions that will serve you in any interviewing environment.

Resources

The following are designed to help you prepare for an interview and to meet the "Interviewing Milestone."

Interviewing Guide

The Interviewing Guide offers extensive tips for successful interviewing as well as information about various interview styles, how to prepare for the interview, what might happen during the interview, a list of questions commonly asked by interviewers and tips for following up after the interview.

Optimal Interview

With OptimalInterview™, you are in full control of your interview practice session. You can choose the length of the practice session, the type of interview, and the interviewer.

Mock Interview

Ready for the next step? Try a mock interview! A mock interview is a practice interview with a career counselor. You will prepare for the mock interview just as you would prepare to be interviewed by an employer. The interview is videotaped and you can review it with your counselor. This is an excellent resource for adding the final polish to your interviewing skills.
