• Opportunity for a practice / mock interview
  You can also choose to use a double guidance appointment to experience a mock interview. These are not guidance sessions to discuss interview technique but opportunities to practice what you have learned from the workshops you have attended and other research you may have undertaken. This is a great opportunity to get some feedback on your performance before you meet an employer at interview.
