Making the Most of Informational Interviews with BARBARA MITCHELL

Conversation with Barbara mitchell 

One of the best ways to gather data to help you focus your job search is to do informational interviews with people who either already are doing the kind of work you're searching for or who have expertise in your field of interest. While these interviews don't usually lead to job offers, they provide you with valuable information to use as you continue your search.

The people you'll want to interview with are typically busy professionals so you must carefully structure your "ask" and keep to an agreed to time frame.  This session will focus on:

 

  • Setting up informational interviews
  • Preparing for informational interviews
  • Conducting an informational interview
  • Following up after an informational interview
