Interview with a “Psychologist” or \”Sociologist\”

The purpose of this assignment is to contact and interview an individual whose educational background was in psychology or sociology to obtain more information about the career process. This individual at a minimum should have a bachelors in psychology or sociology. It isn’t necessary to select a Ph.D. or PsyD. to interview. I encourage you to select a person who may be working in a position that you would like to be in. The interview should take placement ‘synchronously’, i.e., a face-to-face interview or phone interview, and gather information for at least the following areas:

Personal Demographics

Name

Educational background

Years of employment

Current Position

Description of responsibilities

How the current position was obtained?

Career Path

Description of employment (did he or she change areas, etc?)

What will be the next position or area? Why?

Career Advice

What educational advice can you share (What to do and what not to do?)?

What career advice can you share (What to do and what not to do?)?

Please present your interview as a narrative – complete sentences and paragraphs. This allows you to practice professional communication practices. Interview reports with incomplete sentences or structured in bullet points or phrases will receive a score of zero

Requirements: at least page

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
