During all your academic courses and clinical rotations do you have time to think about interviewing for your first job? Do you have any courses that prepare you for what to expect during an interview? Don't worry! The RehabCare Campus Relations Team is here to help. Our "Interviewing Skills Presentation" is just what you need. Recently Josh and I teamed up to host a Interviewing Skills Luncheon for the University of Missouri-Columbia Speech Students. 14 Students, a mix between May 2008 and 2009 graduates, were in attendance for the presentation. It's never too early to start thinking about an interview. Josh and I both received an overwhelming response and positive feedback from the students and faculty. They enjoyed the presentation and feel more prepared for starting the interview process. So what are some of the things we cover in the presentation? We don't want to give all our secrets away but here are a few topics that we cover.
Interviewing Skills- Candidate and Employer
"Be prepared, do not wing the interview......."
"Resume preparation....."
"Professionalism......."
"Research the company ahead of time, prepare questions to ask the interviewer......."
"Career Plan vs Growth Opportunities....."
Between the course work and affiliations there never seems to be anytime to squeeze in a Prep course on interviewing so this presentation is perfect. These are just a few talking points that we cover during the presentation. The presentation is very interactive with the audience, asking for feedback and questions throughout. We also provide materials for you to take notes on and keep for reference in the future. Would you like us to come and talk to your class? Contact a Campus Relations Manager and we are happy to set up a day and time that works best for you.
