...Interview Questions This page is here to help us all be prepared for the types of questions that are typically asked during an interview. We have tried to break them down into the categories listed below as best as possible. Personal Questions - Finance Questions - Accounting Questions - Other Questions [pic] Personal Questions Q. Spend 5 minutes and walk me through your resume. A. The first question you will most likely be asked. On the surface it seems like an easy question, but you will need to be clear and concise with your response. This is something you will need to practice repeatedly so that you can SUCCINCTLY talk about yourself and relate your background to the job. Try to start after you finished undergrad. and talk about: Each position you have held, your role and responsibilities (try to highlight ones that match the job), and what you liked about that work. You want to work your way up to attending Emory. Q. Why do you want to work in Investment Banking/Sales & Trading / Research/ PCS? A. Probably the second question you will be asked. This is probably the most important question you will have to answer. You should be able to relate experiences in your job and interests that match the job you are interviewing for. This is a question that you need to have a rehearsed 2-minute response. Your answer should end along the line "and that’s why I want to go into Investment Banking." How can you relate your background if you didn’t used to work in the industry...

...ECONOMICS. “PRINCIPLES OF ECONOMICS” FIFTH OR SIXTH EDITION, BY N. GREGORY MANKIW. I. MICROECONOMICS Specific markets. Not larger measures (GDP, etc.). The idea of a market. We live in a market economy. The market is a basic idea inside the system. The idea of a market in economics would be represented in a graph. Demand: the higher the price, the lower the demand. Supply: the higher the price, the more interested in producing in market. We have one point which is the equilibrium, with a price and a quantity of equilibrium. DEMAND Quantity: ������������ Main variables acting in the demand: Price (������������ ) of the own good or service: the higher the price, the lower the demand (negative or inverse relationship). Income (Y). two types of goods and services: o Normal goods (+ or direct relationship): incomes goes up, the demand for this product goes up. o Inferior goods (- or inverse relationship): income goes up, demand goes down. What makes inferior goods is not individual behavior, but behavior of the whole market, in a national point of view. There are not typical inferior goods, they change. Inferior means there are some goods which are better comparing to them. When the economics is better you don’t want to have inferior goods, but when there’s a recession that’s would make an advantage. Prices of other goods or services (������������ ). o Substitutes (+ relationship). If the price of the substitute good goes up, our demand will go up as well. Those...

Introduction Hereafter, I will discuss my participation in this endeavour in the third person, as the “researcher”. The researcher’s choice was to conduct a study of RehabCare in Carlow; and through the process of investigation in this organisation, an attempt was made to answer one main question, and two related sub-questions. Main Question: • How successful is RehabCare in Carlow with their Person Centred Planning (PCP) approach to client care? Two sub-questions: • What is the attitude of RehabCare to the concept of empowerment, and how does it fit into the implementation of the PCP process in Carlow RehabCare? • To what extent does PCP at RehabCare contribute to the underlying goal of greater social inclusion? ...

...Basic Tools for Process Improvement Module 3 DECISION-MAKING TOOLS DECISION-MAKING TOOLS 1 Basic Tools for Process Improvement What are team Decision-Making Tools? Two tools frequently used by teams to make decisions are Multivoting and Nominal Group Technique. While idea-generating tools such as Brainstorming produce a list of possible alternatives, Multivoting and Nominal Group Technique help to identify the important or popular items or prioritize the items on a list (Viewgraph 1). NOTE: It is important to remember that not all decisions are made in a team situation. Of those decisions that are made by teams, not every one is going to be made using these tools. How does a team select the right tool to use? ! Try Multivoting if you need to: > Reduce a long list of ideas and assign priorities quickly and with a high degree of team agreement > Identify the important items on a list ! Try Nominal Group Technique if you need a more structured approach to: > Generate, clarify, and evaluate a sizable list of ideas, problems, or issues > Prioritize the items on a list 2 DECISION-MAKING TOOLS Basic Tools for Process Improvement Tools for Making Decisions • Multivoting > Reduces long lists of ideas > Identifies important items • Nominal Group Technique > Generates ideas > Prioritizes items DECISION-MAKING TOOLS VIEWGRAPH 1 DECISION-MAKING TOOLS 3 Basic Tools for Process Improvement 4 DECISION-MAKING TOOLS Basic Tools for Process...
