A mock interview is an awesome way to
prepare students for real world interviews. An even better way is to prepare
them with YOU.
The TSU Career Development Center will
be holding face-to-face mock interviews on
Thursday, April 11, 2013. We will have a
morning interview session, followed by an
employer feedback luncheon with TSU
faculty and staff, ending with the afternoon mock interview session.
On Friday, April 12, 2013, employers may
interview by telephone or through Skype
during our technology-based interview
day. If your company would like to
participate by interviewing our students,
please contact Tina Reed by phone at
615-963-7527 or at [email protected].
We are looking for a few good
employers who offer job
shadowing opportunities for great students. Please
