Interviewing

To learn about what to expect and how to prepare for interviews, see the Seeking Career Opportunities and Interviewing Guide. The Career Library also has interview books, many focusing on the tough questions you worry about being asked. You can check out the books for up to two weeks.

InterviewStream is a web-based tool available to all Gusties. Create your account using your Gustavus email address, login, and create your practice interview. You will need a webcam, as a video of an employer will ask you questions and then your response will be recorded. Once your responses are recorded you can play them back to check for errors, complete a self-assessment, and send them to anyone of your choosing for feedback and suggestions. (InterviewStream is also used by students doing internships or career explorations to record responses to reflection questions). If you run into any problems using InterviewStream, call Career Development at x7575 for assistance.
