The Job Interview: Persuasive Presentation
Explain how you will persuade the Establishment from your Nonverbal presentation to hire you by giving a 3 to 4-minute extemporaneously delivered speech using index cards.
You must submit an MLA Formatted Works Cited and an Outline.
To properly complete the assignment:
1) Remind us of the Establishment and Job Opportunity From Your Nonverbal Speech
-
Research its history: Including the mission and vision statements. If you cannot find in-depth research on the company, provide research on the particular industry in which it operates. Use at least two books (or scholarly journals) as sources plus 3 other sources (not Wikipedia.org or an unapproved .com), and turn in an MLA formatted Works Cited page with your 5 total sources.
2) Identify their Needs
-
You can anonymously call them or walk through their business to learn how they operate/communicate. From that short interaction, learn shared environments (similarities) you may have with current employees. Share what you learned in your presentation.
-
Match elements of the job description/duties that match your past experiences and/or strengths. Strategically position a weakness (for example: “Sometimes I over-prepare”).
3) Explain the Conflict Resolution Style(s) You Use Most Often & Will Use At Work
4) Explain how you will send Recognition, Acknowledgment, & Endorsement messages during the interview.
