Larry Madoo

Journalist

As a seasoned journalism speaker, I am excited to offer mock interview sessions designed to prepare aspiring journalists for the dynamic and competitive field of journalism. These sessions provide a unique opportunity to experience the intensity and demands of real-world journalism interviews in a supportive and educational environment. Through these mock interviews, participants will receive personalized feedback on their performance, including their ability to articulate thoughts clearly, maintain composure under pressure, and demonstrate a deep understanding of current events and journalism ethics. The goal of these sessions is to help participants refine their interviewing skills, build confidence, and develop the poise needed to excel in actual journalism interviews.

During the mock interviews, I will share insights from my extensive experience in the journalism industry, offering practical advice and strategies to help participants stand out to potential employers. We will cover a range of topics, from crafting compelling stories and asking incisive questions to navigating ethical dilemmas and building a strong professional presence. By participating in these sessions, aspiring journalists will gain a better understanding of what editors and news directors look for in candidates, as well as how to present their skills and experiences effectively. Ultimately, these mock interviews aim to equip participants with the tools and knowledge they need to succeed in their journalism careers, providing them with a solid foundation to confidently pursue their professional goals.
