Interviews

The world of work is not as glamorous as some may view it as. In Barbara Ehrenreich's essay, she highlights her experience of searching for job and her experience of working a low wage job serving in a restaurant. She highlights her experience she had while searching for different job positions and her time as working as a waitress in a restaurant. During her stint of being a waitress, she recognizes similar characteristics that is shared by the other employees in the restaurant. Through Ehrenreich’s essay, she hones her emotional and logical appeals by describing the occurrences that accompanies low wage jobs.

The interview process is something we have all gone through in order to get any job. It may not be our dream job but it is a job and we all have to do this process in order to even be able to start working.

East Hall High School is where I conducted my coaching interview. I was granted the opportunity to interview one of the most prestige High School coaches in the state of Georgia; Joe Dix. Dix is the head coach for the boys’ Varsity basketball team at East Hall. Dix and his staff were conducting try outs during our coaching interview, which is was pumped about. Coach Dix talked about the pressure on him and his team to bring home a State Title this year since it’s been a decade since his last one. Joe Dix is in his 21st season as a basketball coach and his 11th as the head coach at East Hall. As the head coach at East Hall Dix has won 2 State Titles, with 5 Final Four appearances, and 7 Region Championships.

When I first found out about this assignment I was a little anxious because I didn 't know whom I would interview or how my request would be received. As I consider my options I thought it would be best to interview someone that could offer me some insight as to what it is like to be an elementary or junior high school counselor, which are the two age groups that I would most like to work with. With this in mind, I decided to interview one of my son 's past guidance counselors. This is a woman that I have admired since the first day that I met her. In talking with her I found her to be a very knowledgeable, caring, and open person. She has been in the helping profession for over twenty years and working as a guidance counselor since 1999.

In recent interviews conducted with five target audience members who all shop the Target brand on average once per week, all but one was a Red Card credit card holder. The fifth participant shopped at Target as often as the others, both online and retail, but cited not wanting another credit card as the reason for not having a Red Card. The other four interviewees were all familiar with the 5 percent discount on all purchases, free online shipping with no minimum purchase, and easy in-store returns. One also like the 5 percent donation Target makes to local schools of choice. None mentioned the 5 percent off for one day of shopping for every two prescriptions filled as incentive. Three of the five interviewed said that Target was their online retailer of choice, compared to the other two who stated Amazon as their preference. When asked what improvements, if any, could be made to better service customer needs, all interviewees who offered an answer mentioned website reliability and slowness as areas of concern. Due to these concerns, none participated in designer releases, Black Friday, or Cyber Monday during the past year. Of those interviewed, on average, 12 percent of their total Target shopping was done online vs. 88 percent in store. Once also stated that she would like the ability to make online purchases through the Cartwheel app.

A few of the most common occupations for baby boomers include, but are not limited to, office clerks and administrative support services, accounting and bookkeeping, sales management/business management/middle management, manual labor and construction workers, law enforcement, elementary school teachers and nurses (“Selected Post”, n.d.). Women were typically the ones found working clerical jobs because of the financial stability and convenient work schedule that these jobs provided (“Selected Post”, n.d.). Throughout the baby boomer generation, many of the college graduates pursued careers in bookkeeping and accounting, as well as in middle management, sales, and business (“Selected Post”, n.d.). For those who didn’t receive a college education, manual labor and construction jobs were popular due to the fact that workers could start without having an education and could easily learn the required skills while on the job (“Selected Post”, n.d.). Law enforcement was yet another common career path chosen by baby boomers because they wanted to make a difference in their

Today 's economic and employment situation is increasingly precarious for younger people. Responsibility is needed by everyone to assist in youth employment and economic growth in an economy that inches closer everyday to becoming a recession. A deeper understanding of the issues young workers face when entering into the workforce is needed as well. Knowing how younger people prioritize their responsibilities and accomplishments, will help us recognize what they need to grow. We also need to let them overcome limitations that are specific to them. It is important to be aware of how all of us delegate, blame or impose responsibility toward young workers. The two essays, "Can Generation Xers Be Trained?" by Shari Caudron and "The Sweet Bird of Youth Is Showing Signs of Age" by Andrew Beyak show stark contrasts to the issues of the younger generation in society.

In this paper, I’m going to describe the financial institution where the nurse staffing issue takes place and I’m going to describe the role of the two people interviewed. I will also describe their viewpoints on the problem with nurse staffing. I will also discuss at least three actions taken to address the issue. Three future steps to address this ongoing issue will also be identified. I will also address three different problems discussed by the interviewees on the blocks that the organization anticipates in undertaking this issue. This paper will also provide statistical information on the background of three financial issues. Lastly, I will use recent literature to further explain the three recognized issues.

Conducting interviews is fundamental as a case manager. In order to understand more about good interviewing, I decided to watch an interview about an addict mother conducted by Dr. Phil.
