CLIENT:

Ultimate Medical Academy, one of the leading medical career colleges in the U.S.

CHALLENGE:

To create a comprehensive skill-building course for current students preparing to enter the workforce, that would also serve to support alumni looking to further develop their interview skill set.

SOLUTION:

Interviews into Opportunities, an interactive, learner-centered job interview preparation course that provides students and alumni with real-world, readily applicable tools and strategies for acing even the most difficult interviews.

MORE ABOUT THE PROGRAM:

This comprehensive e-course helps to prepare students to thrive in a job interview setting and offers comprehensive job interview support for career services staff.

The interview is one of the most important parts of the job search and your chance to demonstrate the best of what you have to offer. If you’ve gotten an interview, then you’re past the screening stage, and may have beaten out hundreds of other candidates to get there. This is your opportunity to let the employer know the value you can bring to their organization. But how? The interview process can seem like a big mystery—even a scary one, but I’ve taken all the guesswork out with comprehensive materials, exercises, and resources to help you build your interviewing skills and put you in the driver’s seat of your next interview.

I begin with preparation, where I discuss how to confidently approach an interview, reduce nervousness, and learn all you can about your potential employer. Next, I give you tips and techniques for answering interview questions and asking your own; you’ll then learn everything you need to know about dressing professionally, using effective presentation skills to get your message across, and making a positive first and final impression in every type of interview setting. Finally, you will have a chance to assess your own performance and record your progress. A successful interview puts you one BIG step closer to your next job. So make the most of this opportunity to improve your skills and ace your next interview!

Interviews into Opportunities can be customized for your school or organization.

“Elizabeth Kemler is a passionate and talented educator, curriculum developer and author. She is always a pleasure to work with. Her collaborative, detail-oriented and responsive interactions ensure timely delivery of project milestones and successful implementation of newly created curriculum materials.”

Amanda Lynne Smith Dean of Curriculum at Ultimate Medical Academy

“Key to her success in the communication field is the fact that Elizabeth is a superb communicator in her own right. Our students consistently reported that she provides a clear sense of both how skills can be improved and why they are important in both school and work. She has always worked well with faculty and brings passion and idealism to everything she does.”

John Osburn Associate Director of CONNECT at Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art

“Working with Elizabeth has always been inspiring. The most enduring quality I have come to appreciate about her is her resiliency – a determination and willingness to return to the project, curriculum, or situation in order to more fully manifest the intentions and goals originally articulated. At the same time, she is capable of adapting, re-evaluating, and transforming a set of intentions to more fully meet the needs of those being served.”

Eliza Ladd Theater Professor & TBLS Trainer

“I saw a dramatic improvement in the quality of both my presentation skills and content in a remarkably short period of time. I cannot recommend Elizabeth highly enough.”

Thomas Zweifel CEO, Swiss Consulting Group & Professor, Columbia University

“I’d recommend Elizabeth to any company looking to improve the performance of their staff when it counts most – first impressions in front of customers, potential customers or investors!”
