How to Prepare for an Exchange appointment

- If you do not have a resume or cover letter, visit the Applying for Jobs page on our website for video tutorials and guides.
- For a mock interview, please send your resume, cover letter, and/or a job listing of the position to which you are applying or a position of interest in advance of your appointment.
What to bring to an Exchange appointment
