Standout

Standout is the premier mock video interview website to help improve your interviewing skills. The practice interviews are categorized by major, and no restrictions are placed on the number of times you can conduct an interview. Standout will allow you to see how you are perceived by an interviewer and gives you the ability to critique your own answers.

Why use Standout? Consider this scenario: You have a virtual interview scheduled …

  • Do you know how you look to the interviewer?
  • Where are you going to sit in your home for the interview?
  • Do you move your body or hands while answering questions?
  • Do you look and sound confident?

By using Standout, you will not only be able to practice your answers, but you can see how you look before that important interview occurs.
