    Description

    Be a mock interviewer and help a student land their first job!

    Students in Menlo-Atherton, Sequoia, and Woodside High Schools' Career Technical Education (CTE) classes receive dual enrollment for their work at both the high school and the community college. For these students, we will be taking them to Foothill College, where they receive this credit, and will offer them a full career fair, which includes:

    • Pathway experience--to share what comes next in the educational pathway they have been enrolled in
    • Campus tour--see the amazing educational facilities that are available in our county
    • Mock Interviews--this is where we need you!

    Watch students visibly improve and sit up with confidence as they proceed through 2 interviews! It's an easy and fun volunteer opportunity for anyone who has interviewed for a job before! In addition, we'd love for you to bring a spouse, colleague, or friend if they'd like to volunteer.

    Students will have the opportunity to meet with 2 professionals, ~20 minutes each, to go through mock interview questions and review their resumes.

    We are flexible, join us for 1 or 2 sessions!

    Times:
