...MGMT350 - Unit 5 Individual Project American Intercontinental University January 3, 2012 How to have a successful interview Introduction (the intent and purpose of the paper) An interview is the most important element in the job searching process. When an employer contacts you for an interview, they are indicating that they are interested in bringing you on board. An interview helps you and the employer determine if the position would be a good fit. Employers hire by personality, confidence, enthusiasm, positive outlook on things, and whether or not someone has good interpersonal and communication skills. Identifying 5 general (common) questions you believe will likely be asked by most interviewers. After each question prepare a “response” for each question addressing how you personally would address each question (be detailed and thorough in your replies): • Question #1 – What do you expect to be doing in 5 years time? o My personal response to that question: 5 years from now, I would like to see myself in an executive position at Allina Hospital. There I will have the opportunity to train other employees and have more responsibilities. If I can learn the company surroundings, I can further my business education within the company. • Question #2 – What are your weaknesses? o My personal response to that question: I personally am not a self-confident person and I find it difficult to talk to people I don’t know.

...Industrial Surveys recommending in-depth individual interviews instead of focus groups in this context? Answer: Industrial surveys recommended in-depth individual interviews over focus groups after comprehending the situation. Although both are used for qualitative purposes, which are the current requirements in the context, however In-depth interview is preferred as it provides detailed perceptions, opinions, beliefs, and attitudes on the research objectives that have already been specified by the organization. On the contrary focus groups are used more to initiate brain storming or if they company or organization needs to get diverse and broad range of opinions on a particular topic. Moreover in-depth interviews would allow the firm to interview professionals or people relevant to the particular field and gain more from their experience of using telecommunication products. This will in turn give Mountain Bell more depth and knowledge from first hand users to improve upon their existing practices. Furthermore since it is on one to one basis in-depth interviews can be scheduled according to the convenience of the industry professionals being interviewed.

...Professional Portfolio: The Importance of a Professional Portfolio to Teachers Polly Anne Bell Grand Canyon University: SPE-529N August 13, 2014 Professional Portfolio: The Importance of a Professional Portfolio to Teachers A professional portfolio is a valuable tool for use by teachers as a reflective instrument to plan and chart professional growth. It is an equally valuable tool for teachers as they engage in job searching (Campbell, Melenyzer, Nettles & Wynan, 2014). A well developed portfolio can help present the teacher as being professional, organized, and a serious member of the teaching profession (Hom, 1997). A Personal Growth Tool When used for personal growth, the portfolio can provide the teacher with a schematic design for structuring, implementing, and advancing professional development. It can help her to link her professional goals to requirements of school districts, state and national standards (Hom, 1997). Additionally, by capturing her experiences in the portfolio, the teacher is better-able to self-evaluate her academic growth, professional development and teaching experiences (Hom, 1997). An Interview Tool A professional portfolio is also valuable in ensuring a smoother and less stressed interview (Campbell et al., 2014). With the portfolio in hand, the teacher is readily able to refer to talking points. When the interviewer poses questions about the teacher’s knowledge, experiences, or how she approaches teaching a certain concept,...

...Television Interview Report: A Reflective Essay The interview I selected was conducted by Oprah Winfrey (interviewer) of Joel and Victoria Osteen (interviewees) on January 8, 2012 via the Oprah: Next Chapter show. I selected this particular interview as I am a fan of Joel Osteen and typically enjoy Oprah’s interviewing style. While this interview was very entertaining, this was not what I would consider to be a “hard hitting” journalistic interview that delved into any one particular subject. There were really no conflicting views, controversial opinions, or original insights that you could not have learned by either reading one of the many books written by Joel Osteen or observed in prior interviews. This was, however, more of a “feel good” piece that continued the examination of Joel Osteen’s belief’s and character. It is worth noting that while Victoria Osteen is part of this interview, she plays more of a corroborative role by giving additional insight into Joel Osteen as the person. This essay will show Oprah’s safe approach at interviewing and Joel Osteen’s non-controversial response still. The interview was conducted at the Osteen’s home in Houston, Texas. This set a casual and comfortable tone for the interview, but the attire was Sunday formal which maintained the gravity of the subjects. It is unlikely that the Osteen’s would have allowed a risky interviewer to come into their home and by allowing Oprah to do so, helped establish a positive rapport...

...protect their community. In the interest of learning more about the dangers of becoming a police officer, research will discover what the hazards through qualitative research. The indication of the type of interview structure as well as listing the questions that will be asked will illustrate how to achieve the goal of this research. In addition will be the advantage of using qualitative research. The goal of the research is to discover the many dangers of becoming a police officer. For a person to make the very important decision to become a police officer, they should know what he or she is possibly facing on the job. What may seem very dangerous to one person may not be so hazardous to another. This is left up to the determination of each person and can depend on several factors such as personal experience and interpretation. The type of interview structure that I use to conduct the research would be an unstructured interview. “Unstructured interviews have many variations depending on the purpose. Sometimes referred to focused, clinical or nondirective interviews, they generally provide for open-ended responses to questions” (Hagan, 2010, pg. 148). With the nature of the research and the room for interpretation by each officer answering the question, the unstructured interview would be best. By allowing each person to give...

...1 Purpose of Interpersonal Skills In Effective Performance Appraisal 1.0 INTRODUCTION When asked what is Interpersonal skills, the answers quite straight forward, people interacting with other people, that's what interpersonal skill means. We all start doing it from the moment we're born. And if all goes well as we grow up, we get more skilled at communicating our wants and needs, our feelings and thoughts. We also learn to interpret other people’s feelings in turn, so that in adulthood we are aware of how our behavior impacts on others. People with good interpersonal skills are easy to be around. They tend to connect with other people effortlessly, they seem to know the right things to say and they make communication in general an easy process. Interpersonal skills are one of those things that we really notice when someone lacks it. When we're in new or awkward situations or when we imagine that there are rules of behavior that everyone else seems to know but us. Mastering interpersonal skills is very essential in today’s globalized business world. As communication is the corners stones of modern business, how are we supposed to survive and thrive when we can’t communicate with our peers? Interpersonal skills are not only required for running a business but also one of the key components of performance appraisal. If any of the two parties in performance appraisal namely, appraiser or appraisee lack interpersonal skills the appraisal will not be effective. If the appraiser...
