About the Program
Many schools and employers will likely turn to technology to expand available opportunities and improve the efficiencies of the interview process. Students amongst our UK peer firms have utilized video submissions to apply for training schemes for many years prior to our current US need for this method. Are you prepared? Even with a likely delayed start of on-campus interviews slated for Fall 2020 into Winter 2021, future job applicants would do well to build virtual interview skills.
