Volunteers Needed For Mock Interviews at Academy of Business

It is that time of year again when the Academy of Business (AOB) invites you to participate in a valuable learning experience for our academy juniors: AOB Mock Job Interviews!

On Thursday, April 28 and Friday April 29 we will be holding mock interviews at the Clairemont High School Library. There will be a 90-minute interview session on each of the two days, so that our 11th grade students can practice their job-interviewing skills. We invite you to be an interviewer! Want more information? Read on and be sure to register on our online Mock Interview Registration Form 2016 before April 23 at 5pm!


EVENT DESCRIPTION: Mock interviews are an outstanding chance for each of our 11th grade academy students to practice a personal, one-on-one job interview. We ask you, our community partner volunteers to create fictitious, entry-level job positions that our students can "apply" and "interview" for. On the day of the interviews, volunteers will interview four or five students for the same position and assess their interview technique as well as their resumes. Finally, volunteers will get to write feedback for each student, and choose which "applicant" of the pool they would like to "hire."

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED: We are looking for about 15 – 20 volunteer mock interviewers.

EVENT DATES: Thursday, April 28 and Friday, April 29

EVENT LOCATION: Clairemont High School Library, 4150 Ute Drive, San Diego, CA 92117
