Chester High
School held a day long Mock interview on April 11th set up to
sharpen interview skills of the graduating senior class. The mock interviews
were organized by partners on the planning committee of the Chester Business
Association, Chester Youth Collaborative, Chester Education Foundation, and City
of Chester Workforce Development. Mock interviewers represented organizations
from the area. Students were interviewed one on one, as if they were actually
interviewing for a job. Each student provided a resume and was interviewed up to 10
minutes. Following the interview, students received immediate feedback on what
they did well and what they needed to improve, including tips for their resume.
The mock interview will also be used in the student’s final grade.
Everyone was
professional. The interviews went well. Nefetaria Yates from the Chester
Workforce Development Center said she received positive feedback from
businesses and pronounced the event a success.
