Job Applications & Interviews

As you are aware, job applications and letters of recommendation are due on November 7th. The last part of the application process will be an interview. Many amazing staff members have volunteered to conduct student interviews.

Your child will find out tomorrow whether their interview is on Monday, November 12th, Tuesday, November 13th, or Wednesday, November 14th. Their day and time will be written in their assignment book.

We will be role playing and preparing for the interviews in class. You can help your child prepare for their interview by rehearsing the following:

• Practice a greeting (handshake, eye contact etc.)
• Ask your child to tell a little about who they are.
• Why are they interested in their three jobs?
• What are important skills they need for their three jobs?
• What should their body language look like throughout the interview?

Lastly, we ask students to dress the part for their interview. Students will be able to change in and out of clothing so they do not have to wear their interview outfit all day.

This is an exciting real world experience for our classes. Thank you in advance for your support. Please don't hesitate to email with any questions.  mcoviello@ewsd.org
