Mock it 'Til You Rock it! Interview Skills Challenge

How much interview practice have you had?  Will you be looking for a job soon? Interviews are an essential part of getting a job and just like anything else, practice makes perfect!

Join us for Mock it 'Til You Rock it! where local high school students (9th-12th grade) are invited to participate in a “mock-interview” event and have the chance to develop and practice interview skills in a fun elimination-style challenge – PLUS WIN PRIZES! This opportunity will help students develop their interview skills and prepare them for getting that first job!

The Challenge:

Students will sit together at a table with an interviewer and during the first round will have 60 seconds to answer an interview question. At the end of the round, the interviewer will select 3 students to move forward to the next round and so on until we have the final round to determine challenge winners.

The goal of Mock it 'Til you Rock it! is to provide students throughout the Gilbert area with the opportunity to enhance their soft skills and help reduce the stress and anxiety that may surround them during their first interview. We hope to boost confidence by acknowledging strengths during interviews, along with providing constructive feedback in a low-stress environment. PLEASE JOIN US!
