Here, students get to level up their resume and soft skills in a fun mock interview experience with real local professionals! They’ll practice essential skills like dressing to impress, mastering that perfect handshake, and nailing body language and eye contact—all in a friendly, supportive environment. To wrap it all up, they’ll even send handwritten thank-you notes to their interviewers, making a lasting impression. It’s a fantastic way to gain confidence and get ready for the real deal!
