Mock Interviews for Seniors

16 Senior pupils were given the opportunity to undertake a mock interview conducted by Mr Ian Ferguson - HR Director of Park’s Hamilton, Helen Salt - Business Engagement Officer, Elliott Jordan from the Business Economic Advisory Board of SLC, and Lorraine Blair of Careers Scotland.

The pupils were nervous but were made to feel relaxed and were given a superb opportunity to practise talking themselves up. The vast majority were confident but one or two perhaps still have to ‘sell themselves’ more.

There were many shining stars but in particular Christopher Price impressed the panel with his wide range of voluntary work out with school, and Mudsar Ahmad also gave an excellent account of himself. Callum McCutcheon and Jamie Kyle were both feeling under the weather yet with some encouragement they fought through the pain barrier to do a good job.
