By the end of this week, you should be feeling more confident about presenting yourself in person, whether at interview or during a networking event. You’ve considered the importance of first impressions, looked at different interview questions and scenarios, and learned about elevator pitches.

You should now be able to:

• create a good first impression when you meet potential employers
• present yourself more effectively at interview
• understand the benefits of networking and feel more confident doing it.
