Interviewing services
Our interviewing service is an optional part of the MyCareerChoices programme. It provides:
- Either a single hand-over interview or a hand-over interview and a follow-up interview (after students have done some initial research).
- Hand-over interviews are designed to help the student understand and utilise the feedback and start focused research.
- Follow-up interviews help the student to reflect on the research findings and consider the implications in terms of choice of subjects for further study and action planning.
