EMPLOYERS Set Up Mock Interviews
Mock interviews are a great way for students to practice their interview skills with an experienced professional. This opportunity allows them to receive feedback on what they are doing well and areas that they need to improve upon before interviews for internships and jobs. Our mock interview program, "Mid-Week Mocks," takes place Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays during both the fall and spring semesters.
Interviews are normally held from 9 a.m.-12 p.m. and 1 p.m.-4 p.m. Each interview is one hour; 30 minutes for the interview, 15 minutes for feedback, and 15 minutes for a short break. Organizations participating may bring one or more representatives to host multiple schedules. The experience is beneficial for students as well as employers; students gain added interview experience and employers get the opportunity to meet students who will soon be interviewing for positions.
If you are interested in participating in the mock interview program, or for more information, please contact Sara Burden, Career Advisor, at 319-335-1027 or sara-burden@uiowa.edu. Some limitations may apply based on space and timing.
