An important element of the job search process is the interview. Through the Toppel
Mock Interview Program, students can enroll in a one-hour interview to help polish
their interviewing skills and prepare to meet with employers. An advisor will conduct
the interview for 20-30 minutes, and feedback is provided about the student’s performance.
Questions are targeted to the student’s field/major (i.e., medical school interview,
finance interview, etc.).
Mock Interviews are offered daily by appointment only. All students interested in
signing up for an individual mock interview must participate in an
interviewing skills workshop. Once signed up for a mock interview, make
sure to bring a copy of your resume to the appointment. We also recommend that you
bring a CD to record the interview. For more information on how to sign-up, call
(305) 284-5451 or stop by the Toppel Career Center.
