East Hampton High School students need help learning interview skills.

East Hampton High School is seeking adults from the local community to perform practice interviews with students on April 7 and 8. The goal is to help students acclimate to answering job or college interview questions, as well as teach them general communication skills they will need in everyday life.

Three time slots are available for participants: 7:30 to 10 a.m., 10:45 to 11:30 a.m., and 12:15 to 2:30 p.m. Interviews can be either virtual, in person, or a combination of those two options. The school will provide a scripted set of questions for interviewers to ask.

Those who are interested in helping can send an email to Debbie Mansir, high school programs coordinator, at [email protected].
