Once you’ve completed the interview, head back to the discussion board and share your thoughts with your fellow classmates on how it went. Be sure to share all the details about the entire process and respond to at least 2 of your fellow classmate’s posts. In your reflection include things such as how the process went, how you felt about it, any obstacles you might have encountered, and what you would do the same or differently in the future.
I had fun with the mock-interview. I would like to do it again soon! unfortunately, the next time I have a chance to practice, it will be on the Real McCoy this Saturday. It will be one of the most important interviews I may ever have. Hopefully it will not end up being the most important, but I would say my PTA program acceptance interview this Saturday, will mark top 5 most important interviews by the end of my life.

I had my life summarized, outlined, and bulleted on the handout I made for quick reference. Facts, numbers, accomplishments, questions I wanted to ask, stuff that could have ate up 10-15 minutes of the interview, however some if not most of those previously mentioned laid dormant for the duration of the interview. I have a morning ritual that I do every morning. I have a similar style of routine if I have something important later in the day; exams, important activities with my kids, an interview. The day of the interview I was flying by the seat of my pants, mainly due to an emergency type of doctor’s appointment I unexpectantly had to go to. and it carries over longer than I had anticipated. Running just by the nick of time left me feeling anxious and unprepared—unprepared mentally.
Every highly effective human that I know of has these routines. The crux of the routine is if it not fulfilled; it can have a negative effect. Mostly subtle but with numerous
During the interview, the Physical Therapist I conferred with was very thorough and straightforward in his responses to the questions that were given. I decided to interview another one of my mother’s fellow co-workers, Mr. Stephen Chan, considering his new experiences in the Physical Therapy field. I met with Mr. Stephen Chan at the Kaiser Permanente Outpatient Orthopedic Clinic that is located in Union City. The essential subject matters that we discussed consisted of his Major and Minor in college, the Residency Program that he takes part in, variations of attitudes, and advantages in the workforce.

Participants had to meet certain criteria. They set up an interview day with the first hour being the section of the workshop that contained personal results such as scores on lower body strength and problem solving. Next they attended three 30-minute sessions that gave them information on topics such as nutrition and stress management. There were a group of participants that participated in the actual interview. They were taken to a private room where they sat at a table. Questions were asked and the person being interviewed would respond with an answer. The interview started with questions such as how life was living with FM and then questions became more detailed such as how to maintain
I interviewed one of my best friends from high school because we grew up in similar cultures and I wanted to see how her views aligned with mine. She’s also in a nursing program so I thought that would make it interesting.
Charles Duhigg’s The Power of Habit, acknowledges how habits control our daily lives in every decision we make. For Instance, an ambitious woman named Lisa Allen, has not always had a fruitful life. Previously, she had abused her body with harmful toxins such as tobacco and alcohol since the beginning of her teenage years. Carrying out these habits everyday resulted her into being unmotivated and unconfident. In fact, she never kept a job longer than a year and began to fall into major debt. “She needed a goal in her life, she thought. Something to work toward” (xii-xiv). It begins with the “three-step loop” a cue that triggers our brain to do the habit. Next a routine, a set of actions that are either physical or mental. Finally a reward of satisfaction that determines whether or not this habit will be continuous (19). Not all habits can be good, but this is where the golden rule applies. Duhigg explains that in order for you to change your habit “ you must keep the old cue, and deliver the old reward, but insert a new routine”(62). “However, simply understanding how habits work- learning the structure of the habit loop makes them easier to control”( 20). Reading The Power of Habit, helped me understand the process by which I made a positive change to fight procrastination.
I conducted an interview about what it is like to be a RN. I find doing Informational interviews very useful to see what someone experance in the field that i might want to go into. I know that there are different nursing fields to explore with my RN degree. I feel that with a informational interview you get to see hear first hand someones experiance in different fields.
There are many bad habits these days and the most serious one for me is stay up late all the time and not energetic enough in the morning. This behavior is called sleep procrastination. Just as the words from the researchers at Utrecht University, “pre-bed procrastination is the latest diagnosable strain of mismanaged time, stopping us from shutting off when we should and causing us to fritter away valuable snoozing opportunities on unnecessary tasks.” Indeed, such tiny behavior has already spread out the entire campus and wastes energy and time. Therefore, trying to correct this behavior by using psychological ways, I decided to use operant conditioning, the process of associating
Interviews can be stressful for both the person being interviewed and the person doing the interview. This is especially true if you have not be trained on how to prepare for or conduct an interview. Post (2016) addresses ways the interviewer can prepare for the interview by researching the candidate and fully understanding the requirements of the job and the skills needed and then conducting the interview effectively.
There were also several actions throughout my interview that I wish to critique as well. Some verbal mistakes that I made during the interview was uttering “uh-huh” or
We all have routines even if we are unable to notice them as they are. They fill our mornings and nights, day by day. Forgetful people, similar to me, can find it challenging to form a routine, however, once the routine is formed it becomes essential to keep. Also, someone like myself with OCD obsessively depends on them. I enjoy having routines for the reason that they help me not to forget to complete something and it causes me to feel less stressed. These cycles that I do periodically, help me extremely in my day to day life, though, if my morning begins wrong or in a way that was not planned, I am forced to modify something which in turn shifts my total routine. If I miss an individual task, my day can be mentally and physically ruined.
A manager plays a pivotal role in steering the success and failure of the organization. As a budding manager, I wanted to get an insight about the daily activities of a manager and learn about their ‘typical day’. Therefore, an interview was scheduled, where the manager shared her views and gave invaluable advice on becoming an effective manager. This helped me in integrating the management concepts taught in the class and its implications in the real world.
This video mock interview was a great experience. The questions were based on interview questions that a company can ask you and prepared you for a real interview. This mock interview was fun to do and taught me many lessons I can do in a real interview setting. To start off, I had to prepare for this mock interview. Some things I considered when preparing was to firstly, look at the questions and briefly go over my answers for each question. After that, I had to wear my best attire and adjust my camera and lighting. Lastly, I had to remind myself with some tips when doing this interview. Such as, making sure there was no distraction around, controlling my speed and most importantly adjusting my body language. However, there are some things
Nathan also commented that I was really good at articulating the responses to the questions. Therefore I was amazed by the comments I received from the interviewer and the observers. I felt like I could have been even better if I overcame my

The practice interview was by far the best feedback I have ever had! In this one short thirty-minute interview I was able to learn so much about myself. There is so much apprehension that proceeds with interviewing regardless the type. My initial thought of having to go on an actual practice interview was nonessential and of course this supposition was inaccurate.
