Final Project
I attained 100 percent of my quota. I had twelve prospects on my contact list. I communicated with only six out of those twelve prospects. The six prospects I communicated with agreed to have informational interviews with me. I was able to complete six successful interviews with great people from different industries.
1. My first informational Interview was with Mohammad Gharbieh, the vice president of Quality One Energy Systems that does heating and air conditioning work and services located in Dallas, Texas. It was a face-to-face sit down interview.
2. My second informational interview was also a face-to-face interview with Jamal Gharbieh, the founder and owner of Quality One Energy Systems.
3. My third informational interview was a face to face sit down interview with Omer Teymur, a young gentleman who is a CEO of a new growing cotton company called AF Cotton LLC located in Dallas, Texas.

5. My fifth informational interview was a phone interview with Bashar Mallah, the owner of Beauty Star Trading Company, a beauty supply company based in Dubai.

...wner of Beauty Star Trading Company, talked to me about the Arabian market in the beauty supply field and how it is growing and very profitable. He encouraged me to go work in Dubai in the same field after I graduate since I already have some experience in this field.

6. Osama Rafiq, a Partner of Deloitte in the Middle East and also a father of a friend of mine. We had an amazing conversation through the phone. He told me how it is different to work in countries with different cultures such as Saudi Arabia. He told me how he had to adapt to the culture and accept it and learn their traditions in order to be able to grow his business. It was a great experience having an interview with such a great professional who is a partner of one of the biggest consulting companies in Saudi Arabia.
The interviewees varied in responsibility from supervisors, to call center representatives, to former employees, and were carried out via phone, email, and face-to-face.

After about an hour of hearing about his career, the interview came to an end. But I took a lot away from it. I think the thing that stuck with me the most is the idea of building a report with everyone you come into contact with. He explained how important it was to build with inmates, but he said it was something that has served him well in every area of his life. Being able to connect with people and see what you can do to make their life a little bit better will in turn make your life more meaningful, no matter what career you chose.
