SUCCESSFUL SUMMER TIP #1: PARTICIPATE IN THE SUMMER MOCK INTERVIEW PROGRAM
We know summer is busy, but plan to set aside time to participate in one or more mock interviews with WashULaw alumni. Interviews can be scheduled in the city where you will be working this summer, in cities you will be visiting, or virtually in cities you are targeting for your job search. Why participate?
- Gain Confidence: The best way to decrease interview anxiety is to be prepared. Mock interviews build confidence.
- Perfect Your Message: Even if you are already an expert interviewer, mock interviews will expose you to new interview questions you may not have considered and give you the opportunity to practice and perfect your responses to common interview questions.
- Obtain Constructive Criticism in a Low Stakes Setting: Our mock interviewers will provide constructive feedback on your answers to their interview questions, as well as tips on non-verbal communication, including handshakes and body language.
- Build Your Network: Mock interviews with WashULaw alumni create instant connections at firms and organizations you may be targeting for future employment.
