EVIT Auto Tech students practice interview skills

The Automotive Technology students at East Valley Institute of Technology (EVIT) went from "under the hood" to "behind the desk" today. They may know all about cars, but can they sell themselves to a future employer? Industry professionals were on hand for mock interviews with the students to help them learn how.
A good, firm handshake is a tried and true interview skill as taught by Bob Jones, owner of Quality Transmission.

Mike McAfee with the Arizona Automobile Dealer's Association interviews the students then gives feedback on what they did well, or how they could improve.

Students learn job seeking skills by filling out resumes, writing cover letters and now by actually practicing the interview process itself.

The practice has proven to be successful. EVIT's Automotive Technology program is #1 in the United States for placements of students in jobs.
