This term, the Chelsea Academy Foundation organised mock interview practice for over 25 Year 13 students, complete with networking training and pizza dinner. Twenty volunteers from diverse fields, including finance, medicine, marketing, and research, gave students valuable experience being interviewed by professionals. We were particularly thrilled to welcome seven Chelsea Academy alumni who returned to support the next generation, alongside current university students who shared insights about university and medical school life in London.
The evening was a tremendous success. As one student reflected: “I met some really nice people who understood my passions, and we had really engaging conversations together.” Another shared: “I believe my confidence in being interviewed has significantly increased. The feedback was so insightful and helpful. I feel much more prepared to attend an interview and react to unexpected questions.”
