Chester International School Students gain valuable experience during Young Chamber Mock Interview Day

The West Cheshire & North Wales Chamber of Commerce’s Young Chamber programme recently helped deliver a mock interview day for sixth-form students at Chester International School.

The students were given the opportunity to be interviewed by a representative from one of the six different Young Chamber Sponsors in attendance. The aim of the experience was to give students an idea of what they can expect when making the step from education into the working world.

The students also received feedback from their interviewer so that they could leave the day, not only with the experience of an interview but also with an idea of where they can improve before they take part in a real-life interview.

Abbey Peers, Head of Careers at Chester International School, commented: “We are really grateful for the support of the Young Chamber in organising our annual mock interviews for Year 12. Students gained great insight about what employers are looking for, and really useful feedback about the impressions they are making. The students find these events truly valuable in the run up to applying for university, apprenticeships, and careers.”

Thank you to the following Young Chamber Sponsors for helping make these events a great success:
