How to Prepare for an Interview

Career Events Student Events

Date/Time: Monday, April 28, 2025 12:00 pm - 12:45 pm

Location: Virtual / Zoom EST


Interviewing takes practice and interviews do not need to be perfect. It’s normal to say ‘um’ occasionally, to be surprised by unexpected questions, or to ask for clarification to ensure you understand a question correctly. These scenarios are perfectly okay because we’re all human. The key is to be well-prepared and authentic throughout the interview process.

Join us for an insightful session where we will explore:

  1. The various types of interviews, including live phone/virtual, asynchronous, case, and technical interviews, along with quick tips for each. This workshop will primarily focus on strategies for behavioral-based interviews.
  2. Essential information to gather about an employer and the position before attending an interview or joining a Zoom call.
  3. How to develop and effectively communicate your ‘power stories’—the stories you anticipate sharing during an interview, crafted in a way that resonates with the interviewer.
  4. Additional strategies to enhance your interview preparation.

Beyond this workshop, students can access Big Interview through Handshake to practice interview questions at their convenience. You may also schedule a mock interview with a career advisor in Handshake through a career advising appointment.
