Evaluate Experience
o What did you learn?
In the process of interviewing both of these individuals, first I realized how much I didn't know about them personally. In asking each of them these fifteen questions I discovered that they had many of the same views about themselves that I had about them.
o What caught you by surprise?
I was surprised to realized how much I already knew about them just in my every week view of them as fellow classmates. Also in realizing that each individual was on board to make suggestions on how to go about the activity. As a group we were ready to roll from the start and saw the assignment through to the end of the evaluation process.
o How prepared were you? I was actually a lot more prepares than I thought I was.
o Evaluate the individual members of your group.
Kelsey- Kelsey took charge right away in organizing the project and vocalizing each step. Our understanding of the overall requirements and flow of the project was due to her assessment of the questions. Kelsey was clearly the leader of the group once we settled in to our location.
Richard- He was clear in making his intentions known that he was all for participating to the best of his ability while breaking down the components of the project in a round-robin fashion for efficiency in disbursement of the effort between each member and time management.
I chose the location and led them to an area that was enjoyable yet somewhat secluded so that we could discuss how to go about tackling this project. I also ensured that there was clarity in any misunderstanding of the project or individual questions.
o By name, how did they participate? We participated about equally. Kelsey took on a leadership role, I brought up issues that needed to be addressed in order to plan out the discussions and Richard acted as a participant by asking valid questions and pointing out questionable areas in our discussions.
o Do you think they (by name) could be viable candidates for a real job? Explain.
Kelsey- I believe that she can absolutely be an essential part of any team. Her take charge attitude reflects her willingness to jump in with two feet. She came across as highly articulate while knowing how to play the role of team member as well.
Richard- He is a perfect candidate in that he has the courage to speak up in any situation that doesn't seem clear or fair when others may not. He brings up valid points while keeping each individual engaged in the process of the task that is at hand.
o Would you want them to represent your school in a job interview situation as graduate of The Art Institute? I would love to be represented by these two individuals in relation to this school. They represent the team attitude, responsibility, and willingness to succeed that is necessary in today's rough terrain
o How could this experience be improved for you? For the class?
