Job hunting has never been easy, especially for those who have limited experience. There are two keys to finding a decent job: 1) you must market yourself intelligently, and 2) you must be committed to investing the required time and effort into learning the elements of a successful job search.

By combining the power of the computer with full-motion video, audio, graphics, and text, Ace the Interview provides an entertaining and creative approach to learning about the different stages of the job interview process. It also increases content understanding through a series of games and interview examples.

Users are guided through a self-directed series of interview scenarios and expert tips. This program is divided into three sections: Doing Your Homework (preparation and personal presentation); In the Spotlight (the interview process); and Follow-up. Ace the Interview is designed to improve the user’s knowledge of interviewing techniques. It presents video scenarios that show realistic portrayals of the skills being taught. It will attract users to experience responses to the problem situations portrayed. It also exposes users to a variety of situations and provides opportunities for learner input through the interactive format. This interactive approach of Ace the Interview provides flexible instructional strategies to meet the needs of a wide range of learning styles.
