THE PERFECT INTERVIEW!!
Welcome to the Perfect Interview Online!
This website is provided for the exclusive use of students, faculty, and alumni of Ouachita Baptist Univeersity.
Perfect Interview is an innovative learning tool that you can use to enhance your job interviewing skills and develop an edge over the competition. Perfect Interview creates a compelling and realistic "simulated interview" experience where you are asked challenging questions and must respond, just as you would in real job interviews.
You can repeat each question as often as you like, and you can even see examples of how someone else might answer. And, if you get stuck, there's a built-in Interview Coach to offer help. With the help of a web cam, you can record your responses and review them to help you improve.
