About this event
Job Interview contestants submit a one-page resume and cover letter for a mock position announced each year, then complete a 10-minute professional interview with judges. Scoring covers resume quality, cover letter quality, professional appearance, verbal communication, non-verbal cues, and quality of responses. The STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) is essential for behavioral questions.
