INTERVIEW RESEARCH ASSIGNMENT

Assignment Overview

For this assignment you will conduct an interview with an individual in the organization in which you are interning/working. If you are working out of major you will choose an organization in your field and select a candidate to interview or use court personnel that you have identified during your Court Observation Task assignment.

If you are working out of major a telephone interview is acceptable but I would strongly recommend an onsite interview if possible. In either case the candidate you select should possess the knowledge, experience, and qualifications that will help you gain the perspective of an expert or insider within the field.

If the candidate you select refuses to be interviewed thank him or her and seek a different candidate for this assignment.
