CCE's Virtual Practice Interview Program (VPIP) offers the unique opportunity to improve your interview skills and get real-time feedback from industry professionals!

Deadline: Apply on LionSHARE by Monday, February 19, 2024 at 12:00 AM EST.

If you are selected to participate, you will receive an email detailing next steps. You must upload your resume to be considered for a session. Please note that by submitting your resume with your application, you are agreeing to have it shared with your interviewer.

WHY PARTICIPATE?

Practicing with an industry professional presents the opportunity for you to apply your interviewing strategies through a live simulation. You will be sent feedback from the professional after the interview.

WHAT TO EXPECT

You will engage with and answer questions over the course of 45 minutes with the professional, who will facilitate the virtual session via Zoom. Your interviewer will ask questions based on those that you would likely encounter in a first-round interview for a position at their company. To make the most of this exercise, prepare yourself for the practice interview as you would for a real interview.

WHEN AND WHERE WILL IT TAKE PLACE?

Practice interviews take place over Zoom with 45-minute slots available in the afternoons and evenings from February 26 to March 1. You will be sent a link to sign up for an interview time on LionSHARE. Please make sure to confirm your interview time on LionSHARE. During the call, be sure that you are in a quiet space with stable internet and phone service.
