INTERVIEWS
A mock interview with an employer is available for
students at St. Ambrose University to provide basic interviewing
experience that will help prepare them for candidacy in their fields. This experience allows the student to introduce himself or
herself and to answer questions including “Tell me about yourself, “
and “What are your strengths/weaknesses?”
The student will also be asked some typical behavioral interviewing
questions that will demonstrate competencies such as problem solving,
teamwork, initiative and organizational ability.
Following the interview the student will be critiqued and evaluated
by the interviewer. The
student may have a copy of this evaluation and a copy will be included in
the student’s file.
The Career Center has asked employers to join us in
this effort who have been involved with our University, our students and
graduates, and our services. They
do this as a service to our University.
Instructions:
1. Sign
up for a scheduled interview time and submit your resume.
2. Practice your introduction and answers to the expected questions.

3. Arrange to have what you need to dress professionally.

4. Arrive 10 minutes early for your interview and check in at the
Career Center in the Rogalski Center.
5. Thank the employer who interviewed you and follow-up with a written
thank-you note either email or snail mail.
