Interview Training Workbook: Knowing the Rules of Interviewing for Young Adults (Ages 18–30) is an evidence-based, self-paced resource that helps young adults build the confidence, communication skills, and interview readiness needed to succeed in today’s workforce. Whether preparing for a first job, internship, apprenticeship, scholarship interview, or career transition, readers gain practical, real-world strategies they can apply immediately.

Through structured exercises and guided practice, the workbook teaches readers how to identify and communicate their strengths, answer traditional and behavioral interview questions, understand employer expectations, and present themselves as prepared, professional candidates. It also recognizes the value of transferable skills gained through education, employment, volunteering, caregiving, military service, and other life experiences, with dedicated chapters for justice-involved (re-entry) participants and veterans.

Approximately 250 pages in length, the workbook can be completed independently or used in facilitator-led workforce development programs, community colleges, universities, nonprofit organizations, and career readiness workshops, with each participant using their own workbook to practice, reflect, and strengthen their interview skills. More than a one-time interview guide, it is designed to serve as a lifelong career resource that readers can revisit throughout their education, employment, promotions, and career transitions. At its core is one simple message: an interview is not a test—it is a conversation.
