about the program
Interview 2 Impress is a half-day program designed to equip students with the practical skills needed to engage in employment options beyond school.
Interview skills are an essential tool in successfully pursuing post-school employment options and careers. While most students are taught about interview preparation at school, the opportunity to explore this topic and learn from a corporate employee adds considerable value. Mentors sharing their own career journeys and challenges can make an enormous impact as students consider their options for the future.
Interview 2 Impress targets Years 10-11 students to help them understand how to prepare and practise interview skills in a realistic interview scenario. It enables students to test and practise the theory they learn at school by working with a mentor who can provide direct and relevant feedback and advice based on their own job interview experiences.
