After Mr. Daniels was finished with the mock interview, Evaluator gave a brief interviewing class and discussed better answers he could provide to some of the questions. Evaluator and Mr. Daniels discussed appropriate body language during the interview such as maintaining good eye contact and good posture while sitting during the interview. He was also encouraged to show more confidence and enthusiasm.
Trainees will demonstrate their current ability to use different interview skills by working in groups of three to role-play an interview. The two interviewers will take it turns to use four different questions from handout to assess if the person meets the job description. The interviewee will use three forms of body language to show you they are listening.
Consider the three-stage model of interviewing as you watch the video. Provide two to three examples from the video for each of the following stages:
individual to observe the situation for cues about how to react. I ask my interviewee if he
how the questions are answered. Your goal in choosing an interviewee is to simulate the interaction
Evaluator continued to cover completing job applications with Ms. Nash. Evaluator explained to Ms. Nash that employers use job application forms as a screening tool to decide who they will interview.

Evaluator and Ms. Nash complete a sample application. They also discussed the importance of keeping identification current and available such as state ID and social security card. Ms. Nash and Evaluator also practice on her learning her social security number for employment purpose.
Maitland Faucheux is known by “Spuddy” to just about everyone. I met Spuddy though Alumni connections from my advisor. I did not know really much about him but when I talked to him over the phone he seemed really eager to do an interview. Mr. Faucheux actually majored in Computer Science at Nicholls University. He originally wanted to go to a technical school for electronics. Somehow one of his friends from high school ended up talking him into going to college. His friend had heard about the Computer Science major from one of his friends and talked to him about it. He worked in that major for 10 years before he got tired of the repetitive behavior. He also worked at a plant in Vacherie and a sales person for toiletries. Being around people was not a problem because he worked with people since he was 8 years old. He knew that he wanted to own his own business one day. When he opened Spuddy’s Cajun Food he
Watching the Iceman Interview was very enlightening, but also frightening too. Richard Kuklinski also known as the Iceman (because he used to freeze some of the bodies of his victims to hide when they had died) is a violent man who feels nothing for the many he has killed. When asked about what it felt like to dismember a body, he stated he felt nothing when doing it, just seen it has something that had to be done. Watching the interview really got me think on how does one become so warped that they can kill so many people, what factors causes deviant behavior to get degree.
Shantelle Jones is a 17-year old adolescent female who was referred to this agency following a brief hospitalization for a suicide attempt. She resides in Rural, Michigan with her paternal aunt, Ms. Wilson, who has become her adoptive parent, as well as her younger sister, her paternal grandmother, and an adult male cousin. During her intake appointment, Ms. Wilson stated that she would like Miss Jones to be less aggressive toward her sister, less rebellious, and to become compliant with the medical recommendations of the psychiatrist who treated her in the hospital. Miss Jones stated that she would not like counseling, but if it was necessary she would comply because she would like to be less depressed and have less strife in her home life.
In the roughly eleven-minute interview with my client, Alex, we discussed her need for case management services. She established her concerns that she wanted to address with me, as well as her current status in education, living arrangements, social supports, along with her history in the same areas. We also began to discuss (informally) the goals that she intends to reach with help of my services and other services she may be referred to. During the process, I learned about Alex’s strength and resilience. I also learned a lot about myself as an interviewer.
During formal testing Daniel was alert and focused during the session. His speech and language efficiency were observed as average. The examiner provided queries throughout the verbal subtests and Daniel’s responses improved significantly. At this point the rapport was established and Daniel made comments after a query was given such as “I know I need to say more for that question”. He seemed more attentive during visual tasks as well as those where he had to construct something, than verbal, even so he demonstrated his effort to do well.
Cultures are different all across the world, and it’s important to be able to learn about and understand other cultures to help us shape our anthropological insights. With the help of the CBL project and my partner Paul, I was able to interview Victor. The interview process started off awkwardly as there was a setup error and we didn’t quite know where to start. Victor is a man originally from El Salvador that was now residing in St. Peter Minnesota. The interviews took place at the St. Peter community center, where we were around other immigrants who had come to America. Some were of somalin descent, while others were from Central America. We sat down and talked for around 45 minutes two times, and the last time we met for dinner with
Anthony was neatly dressed, had good hygiene, and was well groomed. He made direct and appropriate eye contact and has no notable physical characteristics. He appeared relaxed, sat comfortably, and remained attentive, cooperative, and friendly throughout the interview. The client has an orientation X 4.
I feel that it was very obvious by my behavior at the meeting that interacting and being candid with Amanda makes me incredibly uncomfortable, and that is definitely on me; I wont deny that I have confrontation issues especially when it comes to her. I will do my best to be respectful of her wishes. I acknowledge that I have a bias and I believe that she, as a human being, deserves to be listened to and respected.
The overall experience of mock interview was great. It turned out really well than I thought. I thought I might do badly when I answer the questions. I worried that I will make mistakes and couldn’t answer the questions during the interview. The feedbacks that I received from a staff member can help me with my future interview preparation. Her feedbacks gave me more idea of how to answer the questions, make it more professional, and persuade
When I think of the word interview I think of it as a series of questions asked from one person to another to seek information. In my previous assessment we were asked to interview a fellow peer, on their personal experience of QIBT so far this year. We were not given any question, but made to think of our own. As we were interviewing our peer another peer was marking us on our overall ability to interview. This piece of reflective writing will be an explanation of what I thought my personal strengths and weaknesses were throughout my interview.
