Informational Interviewing
Informational Interviews are an opportunity to:
- Learn about responsibilities and tasks associated with the person’s career and have the opportunity to ask questions about the knowledge, skills, talents and level of education required for the job
- Connect with a business professional who has specific knowledge about an occupation or career in which you are interested
- But note: Informational interviews are not job interviews! However, they could potentially lead to one.
