Mock Interviews

Mock Interviews

mock interview is a simulation of a real job interview used for training purposes to ensure you are ready to engage with an employer and secure the job. Our mock interview tries to resemble a real interview as closely as possible, it also provides experience for you to feel more comfortable during the real interview.


How can a mock interview help you?

1. It can help you clarify your story during a real interview. One of the most important elements of an interview is your ability to tell you story (work history) in a way that makes sense to the employer.  If areas of concern or gaps show up in your story, this is typically a sure way of failure. Having feedback on areas that were unclear is a great way to tighten up your story and align your experience to the job role.

2. Following a mock interview you will have a clear understanding of your strengths and where you need to improve. One of the biggest frustrations we hear from candidates is their inability to get feedback when they do not land the job. Going through the mock interview process will allow you to gain insightful feedback that you can use or avoid in future interviews.

3. Many of us think we have mastered the more traditional interview questions, but what is more important is how our answers sound to the interviewer. Do you have solid answers for questions like:

  • Tell me about yourself
  • What are your strengths?
  • What are your weaknesses?
  • Why are you interested in working for us?

4. Being better prepared for behavioral type questions. Many people struggle with these non-traditional interview questions. Many employers are moving to this style of interviewing questioning. The reason is because is causes you to share more examples and situations you have been involved in. Mock interviews can help you nail down those examples and share the right stories. Typical behavioral type questions are:

  • Describe a situation when you…
  • Name a specific approach to….
  • Tell me about a time when you…

Our mock interview session with feedback will help in your preparation so that you can nail the interview and gain your dream job.
