Mock interviews can be videotaped; the candidate can view the tape afterward, and get feedback. There are coaches who can provide feedback on aspects of the interview process. Mock interviews are most common for job interviews, but may also be used to train public figures to handle interrogations by journalists, as well as help candidates for office prepare for debates.
Mock interviews enable candidates to document their interactions afterwards, and receive comments from instructors on the interview process. These sessions are most prevalent in employment searches, yet may also be employed to instruct public figures on how to handle questioning by journalists, as well as aid candidates for office prepare for debates.
