Assignment:Interview with a ProfessionalInstructions: You (the student) are to locate a person (should not be a friend or boss) who currently holds approximately the same job and title that you hope to hold sometime between six months and five years from now. Schedule a fifteen-minute interview with this person. You (the student) will be the interviewer; the business professional will be the interviewee and will evaluate your interview skills at the close of the interview. This is not a fake job interview; it is a practical information-seeking interview where you can find out everything possible that will help you (a) decide whether you really want such a position and/or (b) help you prepare for the position. At the same time, you will get valuable interviewing experience. If you aren't sure what job area within your major interests you, use this interview as a way to narrow the list of possible careers. For the student who has no wish to make a position or career change, we suggest interviewing a person who has some knowledge or skill that might be helpful in some phase of your life. Again, this person should not already be part of your network!!!Here is a list of just a few questions that you might ask (you don’t have to ask them all; neither are you limited to these questions, as they are only suggestions; ask what you want to know):a. Exactly what does your job entail?b. What do you most like about this position; what do you like the least?c. What are the educational requirements for the position?d. How much experience is required for this position? Preferred?e. How did you get started in this career?f. If you could do things over again, would you choose the same career? Why or why not?g. What future changes do you see in this field (or position)?h. What is the average salary for a person just starting out in this position? How does thesalary in this company compare with that of other similar companies?i. What do I need to know about this job or this field that my professors won’t (or don’t)tell me?j. Describe the "ideal" employee in this company.k. What management style seems to work best here?l. Does this company encourage its employees to further their schooling? If so, do they give financial assistance?m. Is there a written or an unwritten dress code in this company (or department)?n. What questions could I expect if I were interviewing for a job of this type?o. What are the main problems I could expect to encounter in a position of this type?p. What professional organizations that you recommend interested students join?q. What are the main journals or newsletters read by professionals in this field?r. What other things can I be doing now to give myself an edge when I graduate?s. Could you give me the name of another person who might be willing to let me interview him or her?The interview should follow the organizational pattern we’ve discussed. At the end of the interview, you should ask the interviewee to evaluate you on Interview Form A. You should take a legal envelope and offer it to the interviewee; the interviewee should seal Form A in the envelope, and you should bring the sealed envelope to class along with your evaluation of yourself (use Interview Form B). Your instructor will then ask you to open the sealed envelope and compare the professional's evaluation with your own. If the professional's evaluation is less than you hoped, you may elect to do the assignment over with a different professional. Actually, you are encouraged to complete several interviews to provide (1) interviewing experience, (2) personal contacts, and (3) a check on the accuracy of the interviewee’s advice.Interview Evaluation—ProfessionalStudent's name _________________________________________ Total Score__________ Instructions: Please respond to the following questions with regard to the interview in which you have participated.

英语作文你认为大学找工作最重要的三个因素

英语作文你认为大学找工作最重要的三个因素

英语作文你认为大学找工作最重要的三个因素The Most Important Things for Getting a Job After CollegeHi there! My name is Timmy and I'm going to tell you about the three most super duper important things for getting a job after you finish college. I'm only in 4th grade, but I've been thinking a lot about my future career. It's never too early to start planning ahead!The first really really important thing is to study hard and get good grades. I know, I know, studying is no fun. Believe me, I'd way rather be outside playing soccer or riding my bike. But good grades show that you are a hardworking person who can stick with something even when it's difficult.Employers want to hire people who won't just goof off all day. They need workers who will work really hard and get their assignments done on time without making a ton of mistakes. That's why your grades from college are so important when you start applying for jobs. If you have a high GPA, it proves you are a dedicated worker who takes studying seriously.My dad always tells me "C's get degrees, but they don't get jobs." He says I need to aim higher than just passing. The better my grades, the more choices I'll have after graduation. So eventhough it's a major bummer to have to study all the time, I'm going to give it my best effort. I want to be an attractive candidate when I start my career someday.The second crucial thing is to get some work experience before you graduate through internships, part-time jobs, or volunteering. Don't just goof around during your summer vacations! Use that time to build up your resume with productive activities. Employers love to see you've already gotten started in the working world.Last summer, I worked at my uncle's restaurant bussing tables. It wasn't a crazy exciting job, but I learned so much! I had to be respectful to customers, work well with my coworkers, show up on time, and stay focused on my tasks even when I was tired after a long shift. Those are all skills that will help me when I have a career someday.My friend Jake volunteered as a camp counselor over the summer. Even though he didn't get paid, he practiced giving instructions, being a leader, solving conflicts between kids, and a whole bunch of other useful talents. He put that experience on his resume and I bet it will really impress future employers.The more experience you get, the better you'll get at doing a job well. You'll learn what's expected in the workplace and howto meet those expectations. Don't wait until you graduate to start building those skills! Get a head start as soon as you can.The third most important factor is to have some job interviewing skills. It doesn't matter how good your grades are or how much experience you have, you'll never get hired if you totally bomb the interview! Interviewing is a special skill that you need to practice.My parents did some practice interviews with me when I was applying to be a baseball team captain. I had to dress up nicely, shake hands firmly, make eye contact, speak clearly, and have some intelligent answers ready to questions they might ask. It was pretty nerve-wracking, but the practice helped a ton. When it came time for the real interview, I knew what to expect and how to make a good impression.Doing well in a job interview shows that you have great communication skills and can keep your cool under pressure. You need to be able to explain why you're the best person for the job in a convincing way. If you get all flustered, say "umm" every two seconds, and avoid eye contact, the interviewer might think you're not very well-prepared or confident.So be sure to research some common interview questions ahead of time and rehearse your answers out loud. You can evenrecord yourself on your phone and watch it back to see how you come across. With enough practice, you'll be a total pro at interviewing by the time you're applying for your dream career!Well, those are what I think are the three most important things for getting hired after finishing college: good grades, work experience, and solid interviewing abilities. Of course, there are other things that matter too like having a good personality, being able to work as part of a team, dressing professionally, and bringing a positive attitude. But if you focus on those three factors, you'll already be giving yourself a huge advantage in the job market!It's still a few years away for me, but I'm already starting to prepare by buckling down at school, helping out at local businesses, and practicing my public speaking. I hope to be able to land an awesome job when I grow up, maybe as a professional baseball player, astronaut, or Lego designer. But no matter what career I choose, I'll be sure to put in the hard work now so I can reap the rewards later on. Being unemployed and broke as an adult doesn't sound like much fun at all!Alright, that's enough career advice from me for now. I've got to get outside and practice my curveball. Catch you later!。

如果是集体面试，主考官会轮流叫人，进入房间后只要自己介绍就可以了。

句型有：Excuse me, please. I wish to apply for the vacancy advertised in the morning newspaper yesterday. Has the vacancy been filled? 或者I wasrecommended to your company by Mr.White, your manager. 。

应届毕业生职场1. Listen more than you talk. Soak up information about how the organization works, and the reasons why, before you offer helpful alternatives.少说多听。

潜心研究公司运营方式，探究个中缘由，以便日后提出合理化的建议。

2. Don t segregate yourself with people in your age group. Get to know older workers too. Your peer group may be more fun for happy hours, but those coworkers who are a decade or more older than you can possibly help with your career. (And you might find out you enjoy their company too!)别光顾着跟同龄人打成一片。
