Schedule a Mock Interview

Practice Your Interviewing Skills with a Mock Interview

The Fleishman Center offers practice mock interviews throughout the academic year. These mock interviews are a great way to prepare for an actual upcoming employment or internship interview, sharpen your interview skills before you have interviews scheduled, and get feedback to improve upon your interviewing skills.

Details:

  • Available weekly during the academic year.
  • Each interview is approximately 30 minutes in length, with 15-20 minutes for the interview, and 10 minutes for the feedback process.
  • Eligibility: Mock interviews are open to all matriculated undergraduate and graduate students and Alumni who have graduated within the last six months. Due to high demand for practice mock interviews,  students are limited to a maximum of three practice mock interviews each semester.
