Year 10 Mock Interviews at Greyfriars Catholic School

We are looking for volunteers to support our Year 10 mock interview event.

The main focus of these interviews is to give students courage to speak with new people and the confidence to talk about themselves in preparation for their work experience at the end of June. Students will have had a chance to familiarise themselves with the interview questions and consider how they may answer; however, some students may need a little bit of prompting.

Format

• Students are not applying for a specific role; therefore, no prep is needed – just show up on the day.
• Students may bring their CVs to ask for brief feedback.
• The interviews will be semi-structured; some core questions will be supplied, as well as the option to ask follow up questions of your own. 
• There will be one student to one volunteer for each interview.
• Each interview will be up to 15 minutes long and will follow lesson/break times. You may conclude an interview early if the student does not have the capacity/willingness to engage.
• Each employer may see up to 8 students, per session, on the day.
• Interviews will take place in the Main Hall. There will be plenty of space for each volunteer/student pair.
• Snacks and beverages will be made available for volunteers.
• There will be a feedback sheet per student for you to make notes and provide feedback comments to help the students to learn from the experience and understand how they can improve. These forms will be collected by myself at the end of the day and shared directly with the students.
