Job Interview Workshop

Job interviews require focus, determination, and preparation. Whether on the phone, online, or in person, there is a right way and a wrong way to make an impression. Whether you can do the job or not, if you cannot communicate your abilities in a job interview, you could get passed over. The interview preparation class by the Alabama Department of Labor- Alabaster Career Center will give attendees the tools to prepare for a job interview and make the case. We will look to the preparation for an interview, the types of questions asked-and what is behind them. We will give hints at how to truthfully answer interview questions; what to include, what not to include, and how to frame the answers with integrity to put you in the best position to get the job you want. Limited seating, registration recommended. Limited seating, registration recommended.
