Introduction

A successful resume = Desired Employment
Our group consists of different career fields in which each member of our group
interviewed different people from their job fields, and those fields include Criminal Justice,
Aviation, and Business Management. In order for us to complete this assignment, as mentioned
above we had to come up together to bring our differences and similarities as a group. At the
beginning we had a hard time, trying to figure out how we were going to accomplish our goal of
interviewing the different managers. Most of the people which we interview took a long time to
answer our questions back. In a way for a while we were stuck with no information at all, we
were afraid of not being able to accomplish this assignment, since our hiring managers have
pretty busy schedules.
Since we have different careers, we thought our answers would be completely different.
But as we start sharing our interviews, we had discover there are too many similarities in what
the hiring managers ask from us, so we can be able to get the desired job from the company each
one of us would like to continue working or start working for. Having different career fields
makes it a challenge for everyone in the group, since we did not know any information about
each other career field. When we had to meet each other, we had different schedules in which
sometimes one of us was not able to make it, but we would informed each other what had we
done, and what the other member had to do in order to accomplish the goal of sharing the
information they have. Working together has brought us new knowledge from different careers
and different perspectives about our education.
