Videotaped Mock Interviews

A terrific way to build interview skills and confidence!  Each interview is conducted by a volunteer recruiter from a local company, and immediate feedback is provided.

Description: Videotaped Mock Interviews give you a chance to practice your interview skills with an actual recruiter, who hires UC students. Recruiters will role-play an interview with you, and then give you feedback on your interviewing. This whole experience takes about 30 minutes, and you can get valuable feedback on your interview skills and areas that need improvement.

Attendance Policies: To ensure the benefit to students, the efficient use of employers’ time and the historical quality of the Videotaped Mock Interview Program, it is important that you read and understanding the Videotaped Mock Interview Attendance Policy.
