Interview Report On Thursday, August 27th, I interviewed with Mark Wasden for a front desk position at the Cole and Ustick Library in Boise, Idaho. This was the first interview that I have ever participated in, and even though I went in to my interview nervous, I came out confident. On Tuesday, September 1st, I went back to my Human Relations class, where I learned different techniques to improve my interview skills. I also received tips on how to handle different situations that could happen in
The Interview Type Of Interview For my assignment I chose to examine an interview I was a party to at my place of employment with the local Association For Community Living. It was an orientation meeting for a new client moving into a group home where I currently work as a Direct Care Worker. Under the classification of interviews, my analysis focuses on an Information Giving type of interview. As outlined in class, information giving interviews are used to obtain facts, opinions, feelings, attitudes
What is an interview? An interview is an oral examination. This examination allows the interviewer to find out information about the interviewee in a non-formal setting. I needed to conduct an interview to find out what kind of person my partner is. To begin the process I needed a partner to interview. The partner I was given was Kelby McCoy. We decided partners by drawing pieces of papers with a number between one and thirteen and an A or B for each number. I drew that paper 3B and Kelby drew the
The Interview I never thought I would have to go as far as Australia to write a story on a fellow High School alumnus, Monica Confides. I was of course always familiar with her track breaking record all through school, but I never had the opportunity to talk with her one on one. Now here I am in beautiful Sydney, waiting patiently with pen and paper in hand for Monica to finish her interview with NBC. It’s a delightful day with a temperature of about 85 degrees, and the sun shimmering down brightly
Tuesdays With Morrie For the past day or two I have spent time with my sister, discussing different topics with her about life. I closely observed her feelings and I recorded what she had to say. We talked about regrets- Ever since my sister Erin started school she got excellent grades. She doesn’t really have any regrets. She only regrets some choices she made with her friends. She thinks she could have picked better friends because she doesn’t have any true friends. She also wished that she stayed
When assigned with the task to interview someone, I knew that I wanted to make the most out of it and do an interview that would be practical and I could benefit from outside of the assignment. Immediately I though of one of my dads best friend, Karl, who’s profession is investment banker, the exact profession I hope to have one day. When I reached out to Karl he was more than happy to sit down with me, however he offered to set me up with “the man who runs things around here”, his boss Bill who
medical clinics, spreading the gospel, and other various types of humanitarian work. I must admit, I also pitched my tent in this camp for many years. I had never sat down face to face and talk "ministry" with a missionary before, it wasn¹t until this interview that I really got a personal look into the heart of a real life missionary. First to be interviewed was Jonathan Burmeister with Wycliffe Bible Translators. Jonathan was very open and willing to share with me "his story" as a missionary. A career

In addition, your role as an arts professor, being equipped with critical thinking skills and familiarity with the social science/humanities discourse will fit perfectly for this qualitative interview.

The interview participant is a 71 year-old woman named Gloria, who immigrated from to Canada 43 years ago and has worked at her job for 31 years. Despite what most people may think about older adults, she states that she feels younger than she is – while some of the reasons were explored in this interview. To begin, the first key theme is independence. Gloria mentioned that one of the most important life lessons is, “you must learn to help yourself and get by on your own.” Regarding course content
Marketing Interview Many small businesses don’t realize how important their company image really is. The following is a formula for low cost marketing for a small business to create or better their image. To find this formula I interviewed Evan Paull, the owner of a small sign making company based in Annapolis Maryland called ‘Independent Sign Consortium’ or ‘ISC.’ ‘ISC’ was started in 1996 and has had a steady growth ever since. I also interviewed Allison Green, the marketing director of ‘Revisions
The interview I conducted took place in the courtyard of my complex in Smallville, with the interviewee and myself. For the purpose of his paper and to protect the adolescent privacy lets call her Regina. Regina is a fourteen-year-old adolescent female of Africa American descent. She is above average in height and carries a very shy and nonchalance deposition. She is a very attractive young lady and does above average work in her school setting. She appears to be a normal every day child with a
Interview with the Luddite In Andrea Lunsford's introduction she gives a brief background on both Kelly and his interviewee, Kirkpatrick Sale. From her descriptions it is very clear on how different the beliefs of these two men are from each other. Lunsford seems to be fascinated by how the interviews in Wired magazine, which she sort of reluctantly subscribes to, have all ended up in a debate or argument. And the one "which you are about to read,["Interview with the Luddite"] is no exception
The Interview Paper Description of Stoneman Stoneman is ninetieth-years-old. He is a 5 feet 8 inch Chinese boy. He has a big nose but small eyes with glasses. By looking at his mouth, you will think that he is a talkative boy because of his big mouth, but not. He is a passive person. If you don’t talk to him, he never opens his big mouth because he knows his mouth stinks. Although you maybe hate stink, you will like to talk with him because he is really very kind and he can give you a good
As you may know, while the film IWTV was in production with David Geffen, the author of the book had no legitimate contact with him or with the studio or with anyone connected with the film. When the announcement was made that Tom Cruise would star as Lestat, I had deep reservations and severe criticisms. So did many many of my readers. I talked openly about this. A curtain thereafter divided me from the entire production, and with reason. Nobody likes to be criticized, and that includes movie people
I had a scheduled interview with Ms. Jessica Robinson, for the first time on her own on April 30, 2015 and 2:30 pm. The meeting was held in my office located at the U.S Probation and Pretrial Service. I asked for verification on her name before conducting the assessment and asked if she was okay with the idea of me taking notes during the session. I reassured her that is her choice to accept this choice regardless if she has a record with the court or not. She agrees to the concept and I explain
The JFK Assassination This interview was conducted with my friend’s father on the assassination of JFK, and the impact it had on life in America. Q: How old were you when JFK was assassinated? A: I was only 15 at the time, but I can vividly recall it Q: What was your very first reaction? A: Well, I was shocked I really couldn’t believe it. I mean, you hear about the Lincoln’s assassination but it never seemed real. Now JFK was assassinated and it seemed like it could never happen, it was just like

Scene: In an artificial bubble on the surface of Ganymede (one of Jupiter's moons), an alien explorer describes the planet "Earth" to his species. Can you give us a general picture of Earth and its inhabitants? The planet is rather pretty, with lots of natural resources. "Fertile" isn't too strong a word, especially when compared with most places in the local system. There are lots of energy sources, easily accessed, and lots of chemical resources as well. And we think this fertility is why the
Interviews Interviews are considered a key method for collecting rich data through interaction with individuals in human and social research, especially in qualitative field (Bernard, 2011; Brinkmann, 2014; Brinkmann & Kvale, 2015; Seidman, 2012; Weiss, 1995). According to Patton (2015) “interviews are open-ended questions and probes yield in-depth response about people’s experiences, perceptions, opinions, feelings, and knowledge” (p 14). In other words, interviews provide insights about participants’
I often tell people that interviewing the young people in the film/TV industry is the task in which I most revel. While I had only heard of the popular Netflix show Anne With An E, when I was given the opportunity to ask Kyla Matthews (Ruby Gillis) a few questions about her career, I jumped at the chance. Interestingly enough, Hallmark audiences are familiar with her work as well. It is with immense enthusiasm that I share her insightful responses with my readers today! Photo Credit: Ian Redd RH:
