I-Prep (Interview Practice and Review for Emerging Professionals) is a volunteer mentoring program developed by F·E·G·S Health and Human Services System, in conjunction with MBA students at Columbia Business School.

Columbia MBA students mentor unemployed, socially and economically disadvantaged individuals who participate in employment and job readiness programs at F·E·G·S. Mentors work on an individual basis with program participants to help them gain confidence and sharpen their interviewing skills to improve their chances of opening the doors to full-time employment.

The I-Prep program arranges for participants to visit Columbia's campus and work one-on-one with Columbia MBA students.

The one hour long sessions offer the F·E·G·S participants two 20-25 minute mock interviews in addition to feedback sessions, with two different Columbia MBA student volunteers.

F·E·G·S, one of the nation's largest health and human services organizations, provides a broad network of services in the areas of behavioral health, family, developmental disabilities, rehabilitation, employment training, career development, and education. These services help 9,000 people each day and more than 78,000 individuals each year. F·E·G·S also provides management and technical assistance to other not-for-profit organizations, business and government, nationally and internationally.
