Millions of job interviews occur each year, and applicants fight hard to get the job in each one. Hundreds of applicants literally fight each other for the same job, each one trying outdo the next one. Only the applicant with the best “closing act” will win the job, so every trick and effort makes a difference. Some people still believe in the “thank you” letter as a way of sealing the deal if they didn’t seal it at the end of the interview. The following contains some information on the…

What would my employees think? Am I a pushover? Will more complaints occur? In order to avoid these questions and any resulting regret the decision was made based on the regret theory (Plous, 1993 p.101). 3. Compare and contrast your understanding of judgment and/or decision making using these three different theoretical approaches. My understanding of the judgment was based on the surrounding context. The baseline for the behavior of the employee was determined by a reference point,…

exciting and topical note. Once I got into the later paragraphs, my writing improved and I could tell my ideas were flowing much more easily. The second paragraph, though, was just as bare as the first. In fact, it was only four sentences long. I started by presenting background information on what I thought being an insider or outsider meant, and started to add in the high school aspect.

It feels a bit scattered and doesn 't feel like it is in order. Your paragraph about his information is fine but I think it needs to be orangized. Does the writer introduce the article’s name, the author’s name, and the main point/argument of the article? Is it effective? Yes, this part was very clear. It 'll be nice is his…

As I surveyed the various Writing 100 courses at freshman orientation, this class “Disability in Contemporary American Culture” immediately caught my eye. As a special education major, it makes sense that the subject of disability would be of interest to me. I thought that I would be fully prepared for this course after taking a memorable and intensive course in English last year. In retrospect, after attending class for about two months, I certainly did not expect to learn an entirely new…

I met with my mentor teacher and showed her the assignment printout indicating my requirements for the class lesson that I needed to conduct in the month of November. She thought it would be a great idea to introduce the new unit cover Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet by having the students conduct a webquest to discover information about the Elizabethan Era and the life of Shakespeare and presenting their information using a PowerPoint or Prezi presentation. I asked her if they were familiar with…
