The primary goal of this lesson is to equip learners with the ability to effectively translate theoretical knowledge of time management into practical, actionable steps during an interview setting. By the end of this lesson, participants should be able to demonstrate time management strategies that can directly influence their interview performance and outcomes, ensuring they can effectively communicate their capabilities to potential employers.
