On Thursday 5 November, our year 13 students took part in a series of mock interviews, providing them with an excellent opportunity to develop their interview skills, build confidence, and prepare for future employment and higher education opportunities.
Ahead of the event, students carefully prepared their CVs and were matched with professionals from organisations that closely aligned with their career aspirations. This ensured that each interview experience was relevant, meaningful, and reflective of the industries students hope to enter in the future.
While many students understandably felt nervous at the start of their interviews, they quickly grew in confidence as the conversations progressed. Throughout the day, students demonstrated their skills, enthusiasm, and professionalism, receiving positive and constructive feedback from interviewers to help them continue developing their employability skills.
The event provided invaluable real-world experience, helping students gain a better understanding of professional interview expectations and equipping them with the confidence needed for future applications and interviews.
We would like to extend our thanks to everyone involved in organising the event, as well as the volunteers who generously gave their time to interview our students. Their support plays a vital role in preparing our young people for their next steps and future careers.
