And of course, the Expo could not be possible without our amazing mock interview volunteers!💼

Through one-on-one mock interviews, students had the opportunity to practice professional communication, build confidence, and connect with adults from their local community.

These conversations help students strengthen essential interview skills while preparing for future career opportunities. We are grateful to every volunteer who shared their time, encouragement, and expertise to support student success!💫
