15 Dec Year 12 Interview Skills Day
On Friday 11th December, our Year 12 students had their annual interview skills day. All students took part and turned up dressed for the occasion. They were wonderful!
In the morning Pat Jamison from Sentinus delivered a workshop focusing on application form and interview skills. Students learned how to write an application that will get them selected for an interview, how to dress appropriately for the interview and how to make a good first impression. We practised body language, including the handshake, that sends the message “I am the best candidate for this job”. Students also got the opportunity to watch and comment on example interviews in preparation for the afternoon session.
After lunch, 15 members of the community, professionals in a range of areas and industries, joined us to make each student sit a mock interview for a job of their choice.
Our students were outstanding. From the future mechanics to the civil engineers or the next architects, not forgetting the beauticians, football coaches, film producers and the many future teachers (it’s always good to know we inspire our young people!) The performance of our students was promising and made us very proud.
We want to thank once again the members of the Ulidia community and business professionals who made this day possible.
The day was immensely beneficial to all, a day students will remember for a long time.
