The Interview Competition
The Interview Competition offers the perfect opportunity to showcase why you deserve to be an IJM International Queen. Our judges prioritize warmth and friendliness, encouraging naturalness in our delegates. Contestants will share about themselves and their future plans in an age-appropriate setting, devoid of political, religious, or 'textbook' questions. Dresses, jumpsuits, or two-piece ensembles are suitable attire choices; choose something to reflect your fashion-forward personality. Avoid corporate suits and aim to express your unique style.
