...Mock Interview Remix CO2520 Analysis 5.1 Lorenzo Enriquez ITT Technical Institute 11-11-2015 Ms. Nicole Willams Recently, I attended an Interview for HRI Properties for a position in their IT department. I had to go there building in downtown New Orleans. When I entered the building I had to sign in at the front desk and wait in the lobby till the interviewer was ready for me. I arrived early so I waited about twenty minutes till he was ready to interview me. I thought it was going to be a one on one interview; However, I was wrong. I arrived in the conference room there was a long conference table something that you only see on television. I sat down near the head of the table and there were two guys doing the interview. The first guy that was interviewing me was their lead IT person giving me trouble shooting problems that I had to solve on the spot. I believe I did fairly well, but I did not know one of the questions. I told him that I did not know the answer to the question; however, if you give me time I will find the answer to the problem. After he was doing giving me troubleshooting questions, the other interviewer began talking to me. This person was more worried about my character asking me personal questions. I think he was asking me these questions to see the type of person I was. I remember him asking me one question and that question was, what my biggest weakness is? At this point I am being truthful and I told him that one of...

...be the best way to conduct the interview so that the audience could understand the emotion and tone that my subject has with each question, I took advantage of all the time given to complete the interview. My subject was an African American male that is a first-generation college student in his second year at MTSU. He stays across the hall from me so it was quite easy to ask if he wanted to be interviewed. It was when the interviewing process began is when the biggest challenges took place. The first challenge that I had during the process of the interview was that my interviewee was reluctant to answer many of my first draft questions. I found this out by conducting a mock interview to see how comfortable he was with how I wanted to conduct the interview. One of the first questions that I asked was his name. He stopped me and said that he didn’t want to disclose his name. I took the request into consideration and I move on to one of the next questions, and once again he said that he didn’t like it because it was too personal. At this point, I begin to understand that he may be ashamed of how he has neglected his first year of college. I asked if we could come back and...

...Reflection paper Interviews something, we all must go through in life. The mock interview is a practice interview where we can experience a real interview and with the purpose that we will gain experience from it and learn our own experience and have the chance to become better. Before the interview all I did was relaxed and not get tense. Mock interviews there great for experience and knowledge, to know what we did well on, also what we should improve on and do differently next time.

The experience put me in high alert because during the interview I felt so much adrenaline in my body. My body gave me...

...Speed Dating Techniques in Mock Interviews: Lessons to be Learned Sofia Vidalis, Ph.D. and Joseph J. Cecere, Ph.D., CPC Penn State Harrisburg Abstract A student seeking that professional position or practical summer experience has become enormous in their educational experience. A university provides the information and skills for the student so they can be successful in their job search. This may include resume preparation and cover letters towards the next step, the job interview. A mock interview is one way to prepare students for an actual employment interview. It allows students to gain experience and practice in answering questions similar to ones asked during an actual interview. It also helps students become more comfortable in the interview setting. Despite of the importance of mock interviews, most college students do not have that experience until their first job interview during a career fair, internship, or even after graduation. However, in today’s economic, interview preparation may be the determining factor to securing employment. One way in breaking the ice of interviewing jitters is to prepare the students in advance. The Civil Engineering/Structural Design and Construction Engineering Technology program at Penn State University held a Mock Interview and Panel Discussion event to help students better prepare for an interview as realistic as possible.

...October 30, 2013 To: Erin L. Ellsworth, PhD From: Joseph B. Connor Subject: Information Interview Report As you have requested, I’ve investigated the public accounting profession and conducted an interview with somebody in the field. Information on the accounting profession The professional title for public accountants is Certified Public Accountant or commonly known as CPA. The position involves auditing companies by making sure that their financial statements match the actual transactions made by the company in a given period. Certified Public Accountants must graduate with a B.A. in accounting, earn a MAcc (Master of Accountancy), and pass the CPA exams. Upon receiving the title of a CPA, career opportunities are endless. A majority of people receive jobs with the “big 4” public accounting firms that are KPMG, Ernst and Young, PWC, and CBIZ (Bell). Others choose to work for companies that are large enough to have accounting departments. An average salary for someone who passed the CPA is around $60,000 which is dramatically larger compared to the average total occupations salary (bls.gov/OCO).

...the Woods conveys a sarcastic tone and imagery to address the idea of “why do so many people no longer consider the physical world worth watching?” He also ponders, “Why do so many Americans say they want their children to watch less TV, yet continue to expand the opportunities for them to watch it?” Louv visualizes explaining the nineteenth century to a younger generation and how they will not understand what they hear. Louv assumes, “’You did what?’ they’ll ask. ‘Yes,’ we’ll say, ‘it’s true. We actually looked out the car window.’” He is sarcastic because he is in disbelief at how oblivious adolescence is becoming. Louv finds it humorous that children are becoming so dependent on technology and are becoming so detached from nature. He mocks our future generation and their foolhardiness that is arising within them. Richard Louv reminisces his days in the back seat of a driving car, and vividly explains his experience through imagery. He remembers when he “started with a kind of reverence at the horizon, as thunderheads and dancing rain moved with” him. He also personifies the “dancing rain” to portray his full image. Louv understands technology is going to expand and become more broad; however he can understand the intellectual details of nature that he remembers and realizes that technology is distracting people from visualizing “the variety or architecture, here and there; the woods and fields and water beyond the steamy edges- all that was and still available to the eye...

Code should be easy for a new developer to understand (or yourself a year later). Don't optimize for performance unless there's empirical evidence that it is needed. Be wary of building or using frameworks that make the application harder to understand. If you do need a framework (e.g. Spring for dependency injection), make sure the application's business logic isn't tied to the framework in any way. Maintainability Good naming is crucial. You should be able to read the code aloud, and a person listening to you should be able to understand what the code you are reading does Put responsibilities in the right place. Enforce a clean separation of the application's layers. For example, the UI code should not know anything about the database structure. Use well-known patterns and common idioms for the language.

...get to the point of having a positive body image and even though I still have insecurities, for the most part I feel pretty good about myself. One of the biggest things that challenges me in having a positive body image is when I go shopping. A lot of the time I find clothes that I really like but they may not have my size or the clothes are in my size but for some reason they don’t look right on my body. This has been something that has always stressed me out from a young age because I have always felt bad when I don’t fit into certain types of clothes. Another thing that challenges me is when I see people on TV criticizing people because of their weight. I’ve watched numerous talk shows where they will be talking about a celebrity and mock them for gaining weight. In turn this makes me feel even more insecure about my weight, especially if I weigh more than the person they are mocking. However; with my body I have learned to embrace the fact that having curves isn’t a bad thing. Being short sometimes benefits me because clothes that might be too short on other people fit me perfectly. I’ve also just overall embraced the fact that my body is my own and as long as I’m happy in my own skin that is what...

...Professionalism in the Aviation Industry Antoine Hafed Inter-American University of Puerto Rico Bayamon Campus This paper was prepared for AWSC 4100, Taught by Professor Ocasio Being a commercial pilot is an achievement that a lot of student pilots dream of. It takes a lot of dedication, sacrifice and passion to achieve. Apart from receiving proper training, licenses, and certifications to become a certified commercial pilot, growing professionally as a person is very important in the aviation industry. Being professional will make you stand out; will increase your chances of being hired and being treated with respect among others. Having this professionalism is indeed necessary nowadays; competition in the industry stands tougher as time goes on. Obtaining a college degree will make you grow academically, but not always professionally. This is why it’s important to find different ways gain experience as an “acting” professional. At the Inter American University, they offer a bachelor’s degree in aviation, which provides a very intriguing class called: “Career Development for Aerospace Professionals”. While enrolled in this class, students will act and dress as professionals during the entire length of the class. Many wonder why they have to dress up for a class, not realizing that presentation is a very important key for obtaining a good professionalism. Impressions count for a lot, especially first impressions. Wearing the proper attire is the first thing people...

...Is Mac Flecknoe a lampoon or a satire? At a time when fiction from Grub Street hack writers (whom he called the “multitude of scribblers, who daily pester the world with their insufferable stuff ”) was becoming widely read, courtly poets and dramatists like Dryden felt a need to play the public role of arbiters of literary taste. Dryden was actively engaged in contemporary debates which sought to lay down standards of what was considered high and low art. He published his “Essay of Dramatic Poesie” in 1667 and “Discourses on Satire and Epic Poetry” in 1692. Both of these served as prescriptive texts for what passed muster as “good” art. In an age of a revived interest in the classics, many of the instructions on good satirical writing are based on the works of Horace, Persius and Juvenal. While he did not think highly of Horatian verse which used word-play like anagrams and “ackrosticks” and was favoured by Francophiles poets, he admired Juvenal and Persius for their unity of plot and their use of Wit, which he saw as a more masculine device than lampooning or raillery. In MacFlecknoe, Dryden’s definition of good art also comes to be strongly associated with class. When he says that bad poetry laden with “Pure Clinches” or puns is inspired by the “suburban Muse”, his implication is that it is only the genteel circles of London that produce and read good poetry – thus, Bun-hill and Watling Street are down-market parts of London which by virtue of their economic demography...

...sides use an expert it may lead to a battle of experts and as a result jurors may be confounded even more. It can therefore be seen how expert testimony should not be used often and by both sides, something which potentially trials can put into practice. Another strength of this type of research is that it’s generally quite cheap to carry out, as it usually uses self-reports to obtain results, so many can be carried out and thus vast amounts of data can be collected. This means we can apply these results to the area that we are investigating, in this case persuading a jury. On the other hand, all of the research that has been carried out into persuading a jury has been based on mock trials. For example in the Pennington & Hastie study 130 students listened to tape recordings of a mock trial, and although mock trials may resemble real trials, they are not the real thing which means the methodology lacks ecological validity as the settings are usually lab experiments, making the results less valid and thus less useful. Also, most of the research into persuading a jury uses students as participants who were paid to participate or...
