Informational Interview
For my Professionalism course, I conducted an informational interview with a Director of Human Resources. The purpose of this assignment was to gain insight into the daily responsibilities, career path, and skills required in human resources leadership. I prepared questions in advance, conducted the interview, and summarized the key takeaways in a reflection paper.
These same steps can be followed to embed other forms of media as well. If your artifact is a video or slide deck, upload it to ONEDRIVE or Google Drive and you can use the same steps. If you have another form, find a YouTube video or steps online on how best to add it. If all else fails, visit the ePortfolio Studio for technical help.
