Interview Stream

Interview Stream allows you to record and practise interviews online. You can use it to create your own custom interview from a large bank of questions (arranged by employment sector so it’s as relevant as possible).

Record your responses via webcam and then review and assess your answers. If you don’t have a webcam or don’t want to record yourself, the site is also a great place to look for examples of typical interview questions and interview advice. Whether you have an interview coming up or you just want to perfect your technique, just create an account and log in!

Don’t forget to have a look at our Interviews webpage too for more information on the basics, preparing for the day, types of questions and advice on how to handle telephone and video interviews.

If you have an interview coming up, don’t forget you can also book a practice interview with one of our Careers Consultants.
