Interview for Success Program
Learn the nuances of interviewing.
Interviewing in just a conversation. This conversation is designed to determine the fit between the employer and the prospective employee. The interview will typically be the most significant aspect of the employment process.
Keep in mind that interviewing involves a mutual exchange of information. It is not designed to be a process of inquisition or interrogation. The ‘fit’ should go both ways, so the interview is also your opportunity to ask questions!

Reserve a private space in the Career Center to conduct your internship and job interviews, mock interviews, and informational interviews.

It is also a waste of a valuable interview slot for the recruiter and for another student who would have liked an interview but could not get on the schedule. The following penalties will be imposed if you cancel an interview late or do not show.
