"I would describe Big Interview as a program that I think is essential for high school students to have access to, to help them prepare for interviews and to help them prepare to talk to people. To have a program that they can access 24 hours a day seven days a week whenever they want to. That's what Big Interview is to me and it helps students get ready for a real-world interview."
Feedback from students
"I have secured an internship placement at UBS using the techniques that Big Interview has taught me. Thanks so much for your comprehensive curriculum and I surely have learned a lot from it!"
"Big Interview was a large reason why I got my job. For every single job that I applied to, I got positive reviews back and every question that they asked big interview went over so I didn't feel like anything came out of the blue and I felt so confident."
"You guys are great. I just got a job offer. Thank you! :)" "
"I used Big Interview for my hope to work in the entertainment industry. I was accepted into a career trek where I was able to travel from my school in Indiana, out to Los Angeles to explore the entertainment industry and to make connections. Now I'll be working in that industry, so I owe all of that ultimately to Big Interview."
"For those struggling with interviews, Big Interview has some great tips, tools and practice exercises to help improve interviews, build confidence and land that next job. We used Big Interview in our capstone course at Excelsior University and I was very impressed with the effectiveness of this platform!"
Big interview prepared me for a very strenuous interview process. It's a very competitive internship and I was one of three candidates chosen out of a pool of 40 and undoubtedly Big Interview prepared me for the process. I wouldn't be here today if it hadn't been for Big Interview."

When we go later in the semester and they have to interview with real people, they feel that this has given them confidence. This is a great tool. I'm glad I use it and it has an impact on my students."

“Big Interview helped me calmly get through the interview which later allowed me to accept the job that I had as a Security Operations Intern at Wells Fargo.”
“When students go in to use the tool, I find that they are reporting that they are advancing in their interviewing abilities because of the ‘theory’ to ‘practice’ experience. They learn the theory and from there they can actually practice.”
