Recommended: The importance of interviewing skills

One "ah-ha" learning moment I had this week was setting up the interview with my sponsor. The most complicated part so far in the interviewing process was writing the email to the sponsor. I wasn't sure what to write at first and rewrote the email a couple of times before I finally got the wording that I was looking for. I was aiming to sound professional but I didn't want to make things too complicated or have the wording seem unnatural. My sponsor did not respond right away so it left me on edge for the remainder of the day. Making plans between our schedules was easy, we were both available on similar days. I also struggled writing those emails as well, I wanted to make a good first impression so I had to keep rewording and rewriting to

  • Interview and Interrogation: The Reid Technique versus Hypnosis

    972 Words  | 2 Pages

    Many strategies for interviewing and interrogating individuals have been explored over time. Some seem to withstand the test of time, others falter. Two such methods that have been used over time have been the Reid Technique, developed by John E. Reid with the assistance of Fred E. Inbau, and the technique of hypnosis. The similarities and differences of all techniques are what determine their success or failure. An examination of the Reid Technique and hypnosis will reveal why one is still used today and the other is rarely used.

Simply finding the best and fastest person, imitate, and eventually I will be moving at the pace of the so-called rabbit and when that happens, I move to the next rabbit.

    An elderly woman came in on her scooter and said she needed help while she was losing consciousness. We had to take her to one of our room immediately and the second she was put in the room she was asked a bunch of questions she couldn’t answer at the time. As I nervously watched another emergency happened down the hall and my mentor had to run to that, emergency, she turned to me and said “You can handle this right?

  • The 15-Minute Family Interview

    3056 Words  | 7 Pages

    Kaakinen, Gedaly-Duff, Coehlo & Hanson, (2010) report family is the biggest resource for managing care of individuals with chronic illness; family members are the main caregivers and provide necessary continuity of care. Therefore, it is important for health care providers to develop models of care based on an understanding what families are going through (Eggenberger, Meiers, Krumwiede, Bliesmer, & Earle, 2011). The family I chose to interview is in the middle of a transition in family dynamics. I used the family as a system approach as well as a structure-function theoretical framework to the effects of the changes in dynamic function. Additionally, the combinations of genogram, ecomap, adaptations of the Friedman Family Assessment model as well as Wright & Leahey’s 15 minute family interview were utilized.

  • Interview With a Human Resources Manger

    How well a business manages its assets and resources predicates its overall success. Companies that spend financial resources foolishly are apt to find themselves in bankruptcy. Companies that work capital equipment resources beyond the machine’s capabilities or for other than intended purposes are apt to experience downtime and/or lose the equipment to failure. The same premise holds true for a company’s human assets. However, unlike other company assets, which depreciate over time, human assets appreciate over time when managed properly. The article, Importance of Human Resource Investment for Organizations and Economy: A critical Analysis, explains the importance of managing human assets as follows:

  • Interpersonal Reflection Essay

    2013 Words  | 5 Pages

    The first lesson that was hard for me to realize I needed to work on was Avoidance (chapter eight). I thought that I never avoided conflict, once I opened my eyes to what avoidance actually is, I realized I did it a lot. For example, with my coworker who constantly likes to mediate situations, I avoided the conversation with him to tell him how I felt because I didn't want to create a conflict with him. I finally did talk to him about it because I didn't want to avoid it any longer. Unfortunately he didn't think that he did that all the time so the conversation did not change the fact that he still does it, but I know now to not avoid conversations with him. The next thing that I realized with myself is I compete a lot, with a lot of people. I like to be in control so I learned that I don't need to be competitive with everything that I can be in control without trying to compete with people. That control factor of myself also brings my next concept of Power Currency (chapter eight) which is a resource that other people value, I used to think that it was bad for me to be the bossy control

    Thirdly, sentence structure and punctuation. What a complete pain in my neck. I would much rather complete the writing and have someone else worry about the correct syntax. Most of the time, I do not have issues with run on sentences or periods. It is all the rest of them. I found colons are good for making the eyes on smiley faces in my email (:-) ), but I am not too sure how to correctly use them. Please don't even get me started talking about semicolons or hyphens. My only saving grace is I still want to learn these skills.

    When I sit and think of how is it possible to create an essay so perfect that even the professor that is reading it could applaud, and the only answer is practice. When I first stepped into an English course in college, that’s when writing became so difficult that I began to not want any parts of it. It was more than just writing an essay and making sure you used the correct punctuations, it was using different guidelines and rubrics and it all just didn’t make of me at first. I would sit for hours and think of how to start an essay and for it to make sense and not words jumbled together. I began to gain a total fear of going to English class in college due to the lack of my writing skills. I would

  • My Thoughts on Writing

    4284 Words  | 9 Pages

    I got VERY good at the method I was taught in high school, and I've suffered for it. I am acutely aware of a "lost" feeling when faced with the need or desire to succinctly put my own thoughts down on paper -- in a personal letter, in a letter to the editor of the hometown newspaper, or one to a politician to tell him what a weenie he is -- or to write this paper expressing my ideas about writing. I find I have to concentrate hard to write what I want to say without resorting to cliches, bluffing assertions of alleged facts, and the printed equivalent of mumbling-and-hoping-people-get-it, but at least that means I'm learning what to watch for.

When I was assigned my first paper in Writing and Critical Inquiry, assigned by my professor Darcy Mullen, I looked at the topic (experience paper: how humor has affected you as a writer) and said to myself “First off, how am I supposed to write about the influences of humor within my writing?” and “ This will just be a quick five page paper that I can easily get at least a B on just by bull-shitting about the effects of humor in my writing”. At first I thought the class would be just like any other class that I could half ass my papers and get by but later I came to the realization that I was in for of a writing experience more than I had originally thought; my first thought
