Student Professional Awareness Conference
Event(SPAC)

Engineers must be proficient,
professionally astute, and
clearly aware of their
responsibility to society.
Student Professional Awareness
Conferences explore the
subjects that affect engineers'
careers, regardless of how well
engineers prepare themselves
technically.



S
-
PACs are an effective vehicle
to transmit the professional
awareness that enhances the
technical education they receive
in engineering school.


S
-
PACs
permit students to learn from
the varied experience of
successful engineers.

Mock Interview

•
A Mock Interview is one of the
very best ways to prepare for an
actual employment interview.
The Mock Interview will help
you to learn what is expected in
a real interview, and how you
can improve the way you
present yourself. The interview
is video recorded and then
reviewed with you and a trained
Mock Interview Coach. The
Mock Interview Coach will
provide constructive feedback
on all aspects of the interview
process.

•
The Mock Interview Coach will
try to make the interview as
realistic as possible. Many of
the questions you will be asked
are interview questions from
actual employers. The Mock
Interview takes about 20
minutes; then you will watch
and discuss your performance.
The Mock Interview and
critique will last approximately
one hour.
