Introduction The recorded interview was a tough assignment in my opinion, harder than what I thought it would have been. Being as to how I work in a clinical setting, interviewing patients I thought would have come naturally, however that was not the case. Although patients and peers have complimented me on my assessment skills, in this recorded interview I do not feel as though any of the skills I used came naturally. This could be due to the fact that I knew I was being recorded, or the mere…
had to interview a class mate in class. She never interviewed anyone before so she had to go home and practice interviewing family members. There were guidelines for the mock interview procedure that she had to follow to score a high score. Students in the course had to judge the performance of the mock interview with a rubric given by the Instructor.

The mock interview experience was an insightful one. I learned a lot through this experience. First, we discussed how to fill out a job application. You have to fill it out in black ink and also have to know how to write small. The lines aren’t that big and there is a lot of important information that needs to go on there. You also need to get more than one copy if you can in case you make any careless mistakes. Another thing you need to have is reference, but you can write on your application…
Bethel Poon: Through the interview that was conducted, I was able to get a glimpse into the mind of an individual who dealt with various Human Resource tasks for his company.

One such role is of a Human Resources manager, who recruits, screens, interviews and on-boards potential employees. Although he stated that it is very rewarding to find an individual who fits…
applied for would call me for an interview or the position. Needless to say, I was wrong. The job seeking experience is now one that I do not look forward to at all. In fact, I dread job searching, but due to my recent enlightenment on everything I was doing wrong I can become a more competitive candidate for future openings. I have always been a well-rounded person and do well academically. This fact made me confident that most employers would want me, but this mock interview enlightened me…
Despite the fact that the interviewer was obviously very nervous, the interview overall went very well. However, there are several things that the interviewer could also improve on for her next interview. She effectively explained the setup of the room and explained the recording process. She also assured the patient that everything that took place in the room would remain confidential. As stated in Arnold and Boggs, it is “the nurse’s legal responsibility to guard against invasion of the…
directions on where I want to go for my future, such as helping other people. In order to choose the right direction, I wanted to take the chance to experience some jobs through other people’s perspective, such as interviewing them. I choose to interview Aunt Didi, as I am interested in her occupation. Her occupation is Pharmacist, and I chose to do that because I am interested in the medical field, and helping others with what they needed. There are other explanations on why I interviewed her,…
When a person first meets an individual, they may judge and/or criticize a person based on their appearance and actions; however, they know nothing about that individual’s lifestyle and what they are going through. In the poem “The Job Interview” by Darcie Dennigan, Dennigan portrays the character by having a job at a church, but the character does not have faith; however, she claims is good job; once the reader continues the rest of the poem, we are led to believe that she does not like her job…

In response, I let them know that I was a senior at the University of California, Irvine…
