Help Desk Project 3: Interviewing Applicants
Objective:
In this project you will interview the students who responded to your job application. You will need to
prepare questions for the interviews, take notes about the applicants, and discuss them privately after
they have all applied. Then you will choose one of them to hire.
This assignment is worth ten points and is due on different days for different companies, but in no case
later than Friday 7-16.
Detailed Instructions
Use the same group you already formed. Make sure you have written down at least three questions to
ask the applicant. Make sure you have a copy of the job description, and that you select the candidate
who meets as many of your goals as possible. Each team member must ask at least one question. In the
discussion, each team member should explain which applicant they liked best and why.
Secretarial Duty: One member of each company must act as the Secretary. This person must write the
company name on a piece of paper, a list of all the company members who were present for the
interviews, and a list of all the students who were interviewed. This paper should also indicate which
applicant got the job. After the interviews are over, turn in the paper to me so I can give you all your
points.
Help Desk Project 4: Job Interview
Objective:
In this project you will apply for a job with one of the other companies formed by students, and go to an
interview to get it. Read the job description and make sure you are ready to answer questions about

This assignment is worth ten points and is due on different days for different companies, but in no case
later than Friday 7-16.
