Interview questions are due on Wednesday. Include your interview subject's name and contact information, if you have it, and add five focused questions to the list of ten we discussed in class. Relate your five to the career you've selected to profile.
Set up the interview as soon as possible, whether in person or not. If you need help finding someone to interview, please let me know. Again, those of you who are undecided need to make a decision quickly.
Suggestions for the interview process itself:
(1) if meeting face-to-face, arrive prepared and on time
(2) if contacting via phone, identify yourself and be polite
(3) if emailing, treat the email like a formal letter
(4) take careful notes
(5) if taping, ask first
(6) follow up with a "thank you" note
For all interviews, you must also write a letter to me with information about the interview. Think of the "five w's" -- who you talked to, why you talked to him/her, when & where the interview took place, and what you talked about. You need only to include information that is relevant to your research, not the conversation you had about football or your Aunt Sue. The letter itself should be in block format. Remember, this letter of summary should be addressed to ME at the school and should (of course) be typed and signed.
