| Mock Interviews |
| An impressive CV with a short and precise outline of one's life history will give one the edge to make the shortlist before anybody else, although the interview should of course sell the real you behind the piece of paper. Interviews gives one a chance to defend why one might be the best to be considered. Mock interview is a platform created for the students, to asses them and thereafter to equip them with the necessary skill and knowledge with regard to interviews as there is no job that will be entered without attending an interview. The objective is to give students a sense of how a real interview will be conducted, prepare them about dress code, body language and how to respond to possible questions during the interview. The interviews are scheduled to take place in October of each Academic year. |
