Perception of need

Graduate employment can influence 
  • choice of university 
  • reputation and popularity of a course


Interview skills can affect employability 








 First year modules prepare students
  • important for all students
  • FdSc students undertake placements in second year

Role-play can provide interview practice
  • students are reluctant to participate
  • difficult to replicate for different groups





Videos would allow replication
  • existing videos over-long
  • not always appropriate
  • not possible to make changes
