Mock Interview Sessions |
Volunteers can help talented immigrant professionals overcome barriers to entering the American labor market. Groups of volunteers can do this by acting as interviewers during our monthly Mock Interview Days. Volunteers practice interviews with our foreign-born jobseekers to give them interviewing experience.

Networking Practice Sessions |
The networking practice simulates a typical networking environment and gives jobseekers a chance to practice their networking skills in a friendly environment, connect to professional peers and develop job search leads. This is a great opportunity to interact with our jobseekers on a social level and to directly help these individuals improve their networking skills.
