Practice in a Mock Interview

A mock interview is a meeting between a student and career counselor for the purpose of practicing how to answer questions that might be asked during a "real" interview.

You may schedule a mock interview with any career counselor or graduate assistant by calling the reception desk at (815) 753-1641. You will be asked to e-mail the counselor ahead of time with the following information:

  • a copy of your resume
  • a copy of the sample job for which you want to interview
