Practice Interview in Senior Seminar
At the end of this October, our counseling team organized a 15 minutes one-on-one mock interview for every senior, and invited our administration team to be the interviewers. Our college counselors are ethical trained professionals to help students find the right fit given their academic and personal interests. At the senior year, counselors would plan a series of activities for students to demystify the Western college application process. By preparing seniors to get used to the interview process, this activity aims to help them have a better performance at the official college interview in the near future, and thus enhance their chances of getting admitted to their dream schools. Before the mock interview, counselors had given students guidance on the scope of investigation involved in the interview, including their understanding of the college, body language, oral expression and other abilities. In addition, counselors explained the logic behind each interview question, and shared with them some useful preparation tips. At the end of the interview, the interviewers gave constructive comments on each student's strengths and weaknesses, hoping to help them perform better in the following official college interviews.
