In Person Practice Interviews

A great way to prepare for a job interview is to have an in-person practice interview with a career counselor. During the session the staff member will ask you questions for approximately 15 minutes and video tape your responses.

The remaining 45 minutes will be spent reviewing the video together and giving you specific tips on your interview strengths as well as ways to improve for the future. To schedule a practice interview call our office at 612-624-2710.
