Personal Narrative: My Interview With Steve Bickert

The night was cold, the air humid, and the sky gloomy it was like any other night at the park but until I got a text message exclaiming LET'S PLAY A GAME. So I called my friends to help me figure out if it was fake or real I called Stevee to help," Hey I need your help can you come to Mazanita park,..I need to talk to you," I stated

Once upon a time in 1945 I heard a big sound in my backyard it was a big hole in my gate and there was a tag and it said Bob Hall in a massive crate. Also later that day I went and adopted him at the philadelphia city hall. 20 years later he grew up and became a construction worker he was the best worker i ever seen until today a big crane came to his site that he was working at and he said no man could beat him at building buildings and Bob Hall said let's have contest pick a building of your choosing and you have 2 days (48 hours) name a place. Ok, let's do it at crane city said Mr.Cranes. Ok, later that day we want to check on Bob Hall and he was doing something very smart he was researching stuff to do in 2 days (48 hours) and he decided to build the Pennsylvania State Capitol and then he asked for the blueprints of the capitol he they said yes. Then we drove to see what cranes was up to but he did not let us see it he said it was a surprise.

I became acquainted with George Stemm after I graduated from Globe High School a little over eighteen years ago. George attended the rival Miami High School, so while the town was small, we somehow never crossed paths until meeting at the party of a mutual friends’ the summer of my graduation. At 33 years old, George has lived in Arizona his entire life and seemed to be the perfect person to interview for this subject, as he comes from a line of native born Arizonans. “I’m the fourth generation of my family to be born and raised in Arizona,” he says as he proudly displays the Arizona state flag he has tattooed on his right arm. Could there be a better subject to interview on an Arizona native’s opinion of tourists?

Working with David on this case, elicit so much excitement out of me, not only because it was a high profile case, but also because it would unquestionably benefit my career’s welfare and having David, as my mentor, would be extremely educational. I was surprised he asked me to assist him with the case considering the short noticed did not allowed me to prepared appropriately, but I trusted his judgment.

2 weeks after our initial preferences were submitted, I was connected with a few members of the TMT group. Speaking with the analysts over the phone, I really enjoyed the conversations and began to believe TMT would be a great fit. Due to my late contact with the team, I did not receive an interview with TMT. After attending all of my meetings on placement day, I met Julia Druckman and Nash Abu-Zahra and discussed the possibility of me joining the TMT group. They suggested I talk to HR. After our talk, I went downstairs and spoke with a few members of HR. They suggested I rank the groups I interviewed with but add in this comment section where I would rank TMT.

From a very young age, You’d see me sitting down at the coffee table with nothing more than scraps of notebook paper and my trusty crayons. I’d just sit there and let my mind run wild with whatever it was on my mind. At a young age, that wasn’t too hard to do. My folks would always applaud me on my work with such enthusiasm that it sparked a flare inside me. As the years went on, I got more involved through online communities like deviantart. I was exposed to different styles and genres as well as artists. There was this one particular artist that stood out the most to me. He was this Independent artist who went by the name Peter Mohrbacher. Mr. Mohrbacher did these really neat illustrations depicting these other worldly beings. His brilliance

Friedrich Nietzsche once said that “In every real man a child is hidden that wants to play.” Well even if he was wrong when it comes to everyone else, he certainly hit the nail on the head with Zack Mikat, a young man whose face is rarely without a smile when among his friends. I first met him about four years ago, when we were both members of a homeschool co-op in Thomasville, North Carolina. We were not very close of friends back in those days, although we did have a few mutual friends and therefore sometimes hung out around each other. The next year he didn’t come back to the co-op, but he came back the year after that, although we still did not know each other well enough to call ourselves friends. However the following year I joined

I grow up in a village called Kongolo where everyone knew the next person. This place was like no other place only people who lived there could comprehend. It was mostly green, big beautiful tress of all kind had shaded the village. We had a nearby river filled with all sort of insects you could imagine; the water was not clean but we had no choice but to utilise it. It’s so funny water saves lives and takes lives away… I lived in a hut and shared a torn mattress with my siblings. It got ice cold in there at night and had no blankets to keep us worm. Women that spoke too much and messed around with the wrong people got cursed never to bare a fruit in their womb. We slept with thin material like linen.

I know what you’re going through. I’ve done some bad things that caused consequences as well. I was young too and did some things that I am not proud of. I felt that no one looked at me the same way after I got out of prison. After a while, I got back on my feet and had a mentor when I was in prison. I made better decisions because I didn’t want the people I care about to see me as a murderer. I too wrote in journals and made films about my experience in prison.

So, I became a wrestler and nothing got in my way this time. So I signed up to be a wrestler, so I had to beat up about 50 people all the way to Mars and they are only 5 ft tall. Since, I missed my home country, I went back there was guards now to enter the country. One man came up to me and said “ how dare you enter Asia, after you bailed on your own country” and he said “ we will have a dole in the forest of Neverland and if you win you may come back to Asia, but if you lose you will never come to this country again”. So, after the next day they met up in the Neverland forest and placed there battle there. By the way, the guy that is going to fight with Noah is Squanto. Squanto has achieved chee in Karate and Noah is just a tall and strong

My family was financially challenged. I had a regularly under or un-employed husband and two kids at home. An acquaintance submitted our family for consideration to the BCS program. We were accepted and gleaned weekly to supplement our household expenses. I was involved in the program several years, during which time BCS grew in leaps and bounds. Eventually, my home life changed and I no longer needed the supplements BCS had provided. Therefore, I moved over to let someone else get on board.

I structured this paper by giving you the insight about all the question I asked and the responses I received, ending it off with the list of facts I learned and knowledge I gained throughout the interview.

One time when I was little , I was 12 years old. MY friends and me went to a place we called the field. WE would play all kinds of sports there. On that day we was playing baseball. My friend was up to bat my other friend was pitching and I was playing the field along with others. My friend pitched the ball my other friend swung and it was hit foul but that is was where all the houses was. It busted out someone window , we all took off running but we didn’t know the persons neighbor seen the whole thing, and we left the baseball. We all ran to my friends house said we are in big trouble. We was the only kids that played on that field so they knew who it was. An hour or two later the people from the house came to my friends house and the grown ups started talking and finaily they called use outside and asked if we had broken the window all of us with out an hesitation and said no.

Today, I interviewed Mr. Adam, an accountant working for Deloitte Company. He is one of my father’s friends. He had been employed for Deloitte Company for many years. So I believe he is the expertise to be interviewed.

I believe my father was a great candidate for my strong tie. He is currently CPA certified and works at Ernst & Young, a firm that needs CPA licensed accountants. For my strong tie I planned out our interview several days in advance. I created a list of questions that I believed would best help me understand more about the CPA exam. I tried to think of questions that would answer all aspects of how the exam has helped him over his career. As a more mature professional I generated more in depth and reflective questions. After generating these questions, I confirmed our location for the in person interview. I hoped that he would describe the way in which the exam has transformed over the years, and how the workplace uses the certification.
