Effective Interviewing Workshop | San Francisco

About this class

An interview is your opportunity to make a strong first face-to-face impression on the job search. Employers want to know three key things: 1) Can you do the job? 2) Will you do the job? and 3) Will you fit in with the organization? Your job is to provide enough solid information for the interviewer to answer an unequivocal "YES!" to all three of these questions. This workshop will help you learn how to do just that.

Students will learn how to navigate the often anxiety-inducing interview process. They will gain tools and techniques to help them best prepare for job interviews. More specifically, students will walk away with an understanding of how to communicate effectively, answer challenging questions, and make their pitch during the interview setting.
