I am so lost with this assignment.I hope that someone can help me. For my business class we are to:
Plan for an interview for a job you would like to have. Consider how you might manage the résumé, job application letter, follow-up letter, and interview.
• Create a table that lays out a day-by-day plan to use as a job aid for your employment search that spans 3 weeks.
I am not certain what the professor is looking for. It is rather easy to do a plan in a virtual world, for a virtual (non-existing) job.
Here is what I suggest: Pick some job you would like to have, if necessary, make it up. Then, list the qualifications, personal attributes, and experience needed for that job. Then create a resume to fit the needs of that job....and so on.
I will be happy to critique your plan.
Thank you Bob. Let me see what I can come up with.
Resume for job search should explain all your qualifications, education areas of experties, professional experience and work related skills. You can also use bulleted points for more convenience of the reader.
Job-application letter for job search should explain the post which you are interstrested for. It should also show your keen interrest to associate with the company.
For Interview a person should be formally dressed. Out look of a person counts much. Be confident what you are delivering about your achievements. Try to make good repo with the interviewer.
Follow-up letter should be specific and consize. In such letter you ask for the updates regarding your filling in the company.The follow-up letter should be sent after a week from interview.

Sure, I can help you with planning for your interview and creating a day-by-day plan for your employment search. Here are the steps you can follow to complete this assignment:
1. Research the job: Start by identifying a job you would like to have. It could be a real job or a hypothetical one. Use online job portals, company websites, and other resources to collect information about the job requirements, qualifications, skills, and experience needed.
2. Identify key qualifications: Make a list of the qualifications, personal attributes, and experience required for the job. This will help you tailor your resume, job application letter, and interview responses to showcase your fit for the role.
3. Create a resume: Use a resume template or format that best represents your skills and experience. Focus on highlighting relevant qualifications, achievements, and experiences that align with the job requirements. Customize your resume to match the needs of the job you are targeting.
4. Write a job application letter: Craft a well-written job application letter that introduces yourself, mentions the specific job you are applying for, explains your interest in the position, and highlights your qualifications and experiences that make you a strong candidate. Address the letter to the appropriate person or department.
5. Follow-up letter: Prepare a follow-up letter or email to send after submitting your application or after your interview. Express gratitude for the opportunity, reiterate your interest in the job, and reemphasize your strengths and qualifications. This demonstrates professionalism and proactive communication.
6. Prepare for the interview: Research common interview questions and prepare thoughtful responses. Consider your skills, experience, and accomplishments that demonstrate your suitability for the job. Practice answering questions confidently and concisely. Additionally, research the company and its industry to show your interest and understanding during the interview.
7. Interview day plan: Create a detailed plan for the day of the interview. Include tasks such as reviewing your resume and application, researching the company for any recent developments, planning your outfit, organizing necessary documents (copies of your resume, references, etc.), and allowing enough time for travel to the interview location.
8. Day-by-day employment search plan: Develop a day-by-day plan for your employment search that spans three weeks. This plan should cover activities such as searching for job opportunities, networking, tailoring your application materials, submitting applications, following up with employers, and preparing for interviews.
Remember to allocate time for each task and prioritize activities based on their importance and urgency. Regularly evaluate your progress and adjust your plan as needed.
Once you have completed your plan, share it for critique and feedback from your professor or peers. This will help you refine your approach and ensure you have considered all relevant aspects for a successful job search.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
