Informational Interview essay instruction
PURPOSE: Informational interviewing is a process by which you can collect data about jobs, occupations, and organizations by interviewing people in their respective fields.

I chose Dr. Negar Davis as my mentor because of her great knowledge and expertise in public/student affairs.
I met with Dr. Negar Davis on Saturday, October 29th to interview and discuss some questions and obtain information and career advice from her as I chose her to be my informational interview mentor.. I drove from Los Angeles to San Diego to meet with Dr. Negar as she invited me to her place at 8941 Gowdy Ave. The questions that I came up with and that Dr. Davis responded to were:
· What knowledge, skills or experience are necessary to qualify for your position?
First, you must have the passion for what you do and do the best at it. Initially, the knowledge comes from the theoretical aspects of learning the scope of the work and understanding the fundamental skill sets. Second, you apply those theories to practical real life situations and step-by-step one grows and develops in the profession. Theories learned and applied in the classroom become second nature to what needs to get done in the moment of time when decisions have to be quick, concise and most important right. Working in higher education doesn’t suit everyone as with any other profession. In higher education, one is surrounded by lifelong learning which can be a challenge for some but excitement for others. Hence, for those who thrive in higher education the skills keep growing and are never ending which add to the experience that keeps growing with time. Consequently, there is never a moment that you think you have seen it all and know it all. You simply don’t as every day brings a new surprise and a new situation that one has to once again think and act quickly to make it a win-win for everyone involved.
· What are the skills and abilities that are needed to be effective in your job function?
The most important skills are to be a good listener and observer to fully understand the needs of the students and able to work well with people from different cultural, ethnic and linguistic backgrounds. Other skills would be interpersonal communication and flexibi.

3. MESSAGE FROM YIM-YU WANG
DEPARTMENT CHAIR, INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS
First, they are always prepared. They do their homework before the interviews
and continue to show similar commitments to their duties during their employ-
ments.
Second, they pay attention to details, which makes the outcomes more effective
and often accomplish more than the expectations.
Third, they follow up and follow through. Professionals do not let the loose ends
drag. They will accomplish the goals.
Last but not the least, they are caring people. They have empathy for others.
This trait, which is seemingly not task related, is indeed what makes you
extraordinary leaders amongst all. It is the one who is more considerate of
others’ needs that brings everybody to the team and motivates everyone to
thrive. So take your heart with you as you embark on this new journey of a
lifetime.
Best wishes,
Yim-Yu Wong
