What is Speed Interviewing?
Speed interviewing is a method of recruitment that a number of firms use, particularly in the US, as a way of interviewing large numbers of potential candidates for positions within a variety of organisations. It is similar in nature to a speed networking format.
For this program UOW alumni (graduates) will be the interviewers. Students will have a limited amount of time with each interviewer. You will move around to each alumnus, answer the question you are asked, and then will receive immediate feedback on your performance.
Alumni will give you tips on how to respond to these types of questions in a real interview situation, before you move on to the next interviewer and a different question.
You will meet with eight alumni in your session, being asked eight questions in total.
Alumni will be ranking each student’s interview performance. The best seven students from each of the two sessions will receive a prize at the networking function at the end of the day.
