In this simulation of a job interview, the Furhat robot takes on the role of a company representative and conducts a job interview. The students participate in pairs as applicants and answer interview questions posed by the Furhat. 

The use of the job interview format as a didactic method pursues several objectives, including:

Deepening the course concepts

The students had the opportunity to deepen and reflect on their knowledge of agile project management from the course.

Exam preparation

The sessions offered students an opportunity to prepare for their final exam in the course.

Peer learning

The students worked together in pairs and learnt from the answers and experiences of their fellow students.

Preparation for job interviews

Experiencing a simulated job interview helps to prepare for future job interviews.
