Competition Overview 



Mock Interview Role-Play: 
Students engage in fifteen-minute mock interview role-play with a business executive. The role-play is then evaluated and scored on various aspects of the interview, including introduction, appearance and overall communication effectiveness, as well as the ability to communicate personal value, and gain a commitment for the next steps.

Speed Selling: Students create a two-minute sales pitch about themselves. Then each student meets individually with an executive and makes a two-minute pitch highlighting the reason he or she should be hired. A one-minute question and answer session follows; then, the student moves on to the next executive.


Sales Call Role-Play: Students engage in fifteen-minute sales call role-play with a business executive. The role-play is then evaluated and scored on various aspects of the sales call, including approach and overall communication effectiveness, as well as the ability to gather information, identify needs, provide information, present solutions, resolve concerns, and gain a commitment.
