We are thrilled to offer the exciting opportunity for a charismatic, enthusiastic and passionate medical student to join us as a Live Mock MMI Interviewer at Contour Med Prep.
At Contour, we pride ourselves in delivering exceptional, well-rounded tutoring services for our students. We’ve developed a comprehensive Interview Preparation Course for the MMI as well as UNSW/JCU Panel Interviews, that equips aspiring medical and dental students with the skills and confidence they need to succeed. We understand that personalised feedback and meticulous simulation is invaluable when it comes to effective MMI Interview preparation. Hence, we pride ourselves on facilitating professional and highly accurate Live Mock MMIs, where students are interviewed by medical students who have successfully sat the MMI, and have been trained to provide constructive, practical and highly personalised feedback.
As a current medical or dental student, you understand the challenges and pressures that come with preparing for interviews. In this role, you'll have the opportunity to create an interactive and supportive environment, providing valuable feedback and effective strategies that will shape each student’s interview success. By joining Contour Med Prep, you'll be part of a dedicated team focused on helping students reach their goals and make their dream of medical school a reality.
Who Are We
Contour Med Prep empowers aspiring medical students through comprehensive UCAT, Interview and Applications programs, supporting them throughout the highly competitive journey of gaining admission into medical or dental school.
Our UCAT and MMI courses focus on developing the specific mental abilities of a successful doctor or dentist, through engaging group lessons, abundant resources, live mock exams, 24/7 student support and so much more! We are extremely committed to innovative and results-driven medical preparation, with industry-first initiatives such as our Live UCAT Testing Centre and student accountability system propelling our students to an industry-leading median UCAT score of 3040+, dozens of 3400+ scores, and one student even setting the world record score of 3590!
Over 3500+ students and 100+ staff have joined Contour since our founding in 2020. In 2024, we expanded our in-person UCAT Testing Centres from Melbourne to Brisbane and Sydney, receiving over 1000 bookings and hundreds of new enrolments from all over Australia! Our growth is a testament to our dedication to providing ALL our students and parents with a high-quality tutoring experience (from 24/7 personal support to on-demand resources) and our commitment to helping them achieve their goals.
We were listed as the 17th Fastest Growing Startup by the Australian Financial Review in 2022, ranked again in 2023, and are continuing to multiply year over year! (We've tripled - or more - in size for four years in a row now, and we don't plan to slow down anytime soon.) It's our vision to reshape education, starting with tutoring.
The Role
At Contour Med Prep, we are driven by our mission to support students as they prepare for one of the most important and challenging stages of their journey into medical and dental school: the interview. Whether it’s the MMI for most universities in Australia, or the panel interview for UNSW and JCU, this stage can often be the make-or-break point in a student’s application. We understand that many students struggle with confidence, structure, and technique during interviews, and that’s why our Interview Course is designed to offer students the guidance they need to stand out and be at their best.
As a Live Mock MMI Interviewer, you will play a vital role in preparing students for their interviews. Using the comprehensive training and guides we provide, coupled with the insights and expertise from your own successful MMI preparation, you’ll be able to guide aspiring medical students through their own interview challenges. By simulating the role of an interviewer, you will create an accurate environment for students to practise, receive constructive feedback, and refine their skills.
Each Mock MMI will last 2 hours. In the first hour, you will facilitate 6 x 10-minute MMI stations, asking the questions and writing detailed written feedback for 6 different students. Then, after a 5-minute break, you will complete 6 x 8-minute feedback stations with those same 6 students, giving detailed and interactive verbal feedback.
This role is collaborative and dynamic, allowing you to be part of a highly-talented team whilst also working independently with students. You will work closely with other interviewers and the interview facilitator to provide students with a seamless and supportive experience. Your role will be completely remote, allowing you to balance your professional and academic commitments, while still having a profound impact on future medical and dental students.
Join us at Contour Med Prep, and help students develop the skills and confidence they need to succeed at one of the most critical points in their journey to medical and dental school. Your expertise, commitment, and passion will help us continue to deliver premium support and guidance, ensuring that students feel ready for any challenging question that comes their way.
Why Contour, and Why This Role?
Working in our collaborative environment with an energetic team is a fantastic opportunity to let your social personality thrive, hone your communication skills and learn heaps along the way!
At Contour Med Prep, you’ll get an inside look at one of the fastest growing start-ups in education in Australia. Our team is super driven and hard-working, but we’re all easy-going and friendly, and we love our frequent (paid-for) team dinners and meet-ups, where you’ll get to talk and vibe with everyone.
Our goal is to reshape education, starting with tutoring. By integrating technology and innovative practices, we strive to empower our students’ learning. As we progress, our small steps start to become big strides, as we make major advances in the resources & support we provide to our students. If you’re eager to channel your passion and communication skills, and teaching skills, this role could be the perfect fit!
This role is a highly rewarding opportunity where you’ll help aspiring medical and dental students refine their interview techniques and boost their confidence. Beyond simply asking questions, you’ll provide detailed, actionable feedback to ensure students are fully prepared for their real interviews.
With rapidly increasing interest in our Interview Course from hundreds of students, you'll be an integral part of Australia’s most sought after Interview Preparation Program. You’ll have the chance to offer feedback and strategies that truly make a real difference in each student’s journey.
Comprehensive Training & Support
When you join, you'll be properly onboarded with all the training, support and personal feedback you need to thrive in the role. You'll work closely with our leadership team and Head of Interviews to upskill and refine your communication and critical thinking skills, and you’ll be thoroughly introduced to all of our software, processes and program structure.
By the end of your initial training, the role will become second-nature to you and you’ll know our programs and processes inside-out! You’ll feel confident conducting interviews and providing comprehensive feedback for students.
After the initial training, you’ll receive ongoing feedback to help accelerate your development within the role. There will also be regular check-ins to keep everyone on the same page and to help you succeed in the role.
