How do I book a resume review or mock interview?

The short answer

Every paid programme includes career sessions. Open Career sessions in your portal and choose Book a slot once a session has opened for your programme. The placement team confirms it with a meeting link.

Book a career session

Your portal

  1. Click Career
  2. Click Career sessions
  3. Click Book a slot
  4. Click Book this slot

Booked, awaiting confirmation, then a meeting link

Every paid programme (the AEP, PGDIA, EPGDIA live online and self-paced, and the AIP) includes one-to-one online sessions with the EDWartens placement team. They are part of your programme, and you book them yourself when you are ready.

What you get

  • 2 resume reviews (30 minutes). A placement officer reads your CV and LinkedIn with you on a video call and tells you what to change before you apply.
  • 2 mock technical interviews (45 minutes), run the way employers in your field run them, with written feedback afterwards.
  • 2 mock HR interviews (30 minutes): your introduction, why this career, relocation, shifts and site travel, notice period and salary questions, with written feedback afterwards.

How to book

  1. Open Career sessions, under Career in your menu.
  2. Find the session. Each card shows how many of your 2 are left.
  3. Choose Book a slot, pick a day and a time, and add a note if you like, such as the roles you are applying for.
  4. Choose Book this slot. It shows under Upcoming as Booked, awaiting confirmation.
  5. The placement team confirms it and adds a meeting link. It then reads Confirmed, with Join the meeting.
  6. After the session, the written feedback appears under Past sessions and feedback.

Sessions run Monday to Saturday, 10:00 to 18:00 IST, except published holidays. You can book from 4 hours to 21 days ahead. You can hold one booking of each kind at a time.

Changing or cancelling

Choose Reschedule or Cancel up to 2 hours before the start. A cancelled session is not used up, so you can book another time. A session you miss without cancelling counts as used and shows as Missed.

Career sessions are practice and advice. Placement support is separate: see What placement help is there?.
