Preparing for an interview can be nerve-racking because the questions, setting, length, and even the people with whom you meet are unknown. Rehearsing your answers to possible questions is one of the most effective techniques that you can use to ace your interview.

Utilize our free, interactive tool, powered by OptimalResume, to prepare for various scenarios, including initial screenings, behavior-based questioning, and panel interviews. Select the type of questions you want to answer, as well as the recording format: audio and video, audio only, or written.

At the conclusion of your mock interview, review your responses and save or rerecord them. If you seek additional advice, share your responses with your career advisor and discuss other interview techniques.
