My experience with Interview Match was very informative. It taught me to self-reflect to understand which position is best fit for me and go through thorough research to learn more about that field. I appreciated that through the self-guided activities I was able to learn essential skills for the workplace. I would recommend this six week training program to someone else because it's worth it; you learn how to get the job you want and use the skills you learned to help you succeed.
