You’ve got to come across well. But…
- Most students sound tentative and nervous when being interviewed.
- When they speak, nearly all “um” … and slur … and speak too quickly.
- Nearly all lack enough lighting and sound quality to convey attention to detail when interviewing online.
- Worse, most don’t know how to adapt their voice from on-camera to on-stage, and from on-mic to online.
- And the worst? Almost none have been taught to speak from the perspective of building a relationship … so instead they speak only about themselves.
Why are delivery skills so critical?
- They lead decision-makers to take you more seriously.
- They’re critical to record quality podcasts and quality college admission videos.
- They make school and work presentations look professional.
- They empower you to convey a more professional image when speaking with teachers, colleagues, or employers.
- Plus they’re super helpful if you’re concerned that you slur, speak too quickly, aren’t good at ‘small talk’,…
- And they pave the way to speak up if you currently lack the confidence to do so when you have something to say.
- And most importantly, they prevent you from coming across with less potential than you actually have, simply because your delivery sounds off.
You’ve got to learn these delivery skills. And unfortunately, most schools don’t teach them.
Why blow your interview?
For goodness sake, you’ve invested so much into your education! Why risk it by interviewing poorly?!?
Feedback, Coaching, & Classes
Interview Admissions Training Group Classes, in-person or Zoom, 10 to 1,000 students
- In group classes, students can volunteer to run through typical college admission questions, mock internship interviews, and more.
- They’ll receive immediate feedback focused on the 5 critical elements of delivery: Speaking skills, lighting setup, audio quality, body language, and visual appearance.
- For those not up for volunteering, no worries! Observing others is equally as valuable—because hearing the “before and after” of other students preps you to perform better in your own interviews.
- Either way, you’ll leave with a powerful and clear understanding of how to better showcase your full potential to decision-makers!
