SAVE THE DATE: MOCK INTERVIEW PROGRAM

Saturday, August 1; 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
Wednesday, August 5, 2015; 5:00 to 8:00 p.m.

To help students prepare for Fall OCI, practicing attorneys in a variety of fields will be on campus to do mock interviews and provide individual feedback. This is a great opportunity to network and practice your interview skills with attorneys in a non-competitive, no-stress atmosphere. Students will be paired with an alumni practitioner for a practice interview. Students will prepare for it as if he/she were interviewing for a real position with the practitioner's firm, organization, or governmental agency. The interview will last 20 minutes and will be followed by 10 minutes of feedback.
