“I had a mock interview today. I felt the questions were a better reflection of this revised document [résumé], more positive about my experience, and I felt better prepared. It helped [in preparing for the interview] thinking about what I got out of my internships, what I learned. I was able to work that into the interview. I was able to extrapolate transferrable skills—taking skills I’d learned from my hobbies and applying them to law. The interviewer loved it. It was a feel-good moment.”
