Ace your Interview by Practicing with Experts

So you made sure your resume was in tip-top shape, got a referral through Refermarket and are on to the interview. What next? Practice interviewing! Getting friends to do practice interviews can go a long way. Getting paired with someone in the role you’re interested in joining, in order to do a mock interview can go even further.

Similar to getting your resume reviewed, it’s important to get someone in the role you’re interested in joining to provide you with support during the interview process and provide you with a few mock interviews. There are a few mock interview services online. Some notable ones are Tryexponent and Careercup. Their services can be helpful but unfortunately are quite expensive as the employees providing the services set the price. In addition to that, there’s a limited number of employees to choose from.

At Refermarket, our mock interview practice services allow for:
    ● Job seekers to set the price they’re willing to pay

    ● Escrow service payment model so your money is safe if you don’t get the value you're looking for

    ● Access to a network of over 1000 professionals at hundreds of different companies

How does it work?

    1. First head to your Career Services page and choose Interview Prep and fill in the following:

          a. Amount you’re willing to pay

          b. Companies you’re interested in (Max 3)
