What is Interview?

three weeks ago  we learned about interview. What is interview? Elements of interview and the stages of interview.
Interview is conversation between two or more people, employers use interviews to size up the whole individual.
Elements of the interview are: Interaction, purpose and exchange.

• interaction is the sharing of ideas, messages, information between the parties in the interview.
• purpose is the main reason for conducting and interview; defines the interview.
• exchange is the continual shift in communication and control that happens during an interview situation.

The stages of the interview are: Introduction stage, body stage and closing stage.

• introduction stage is first part of the interview and build rapport between the parties in the exchange.
• body stage is the stage in the interview where participants often focus on elaborating personal goals, opinions and beliefs.
• closing stage- during this stage the interviewee usually say their final thoughts and summarize the exchange that look place.

 



Next thing that we learned is How to write a Cover letter, I have known something how to write it but in ESP2 we learned it in details: types of cover letter, how to start (use an interesting opening), how to write a body of cover letter (our qualification, experiences) and how to end it.

we started to talk in generally about syllabus, in the second part of class we talked about Communication, types of communication: intrapersonal communication, business communication, interpersonal communication, verbal communication and public communication. something from this lessons we had known, this was very effective class even we started from 8 o'clock, all of us said something about communication.
