Conditions for Learning Survey

Grade 11

Title: Interviewing/Securing a Job

Goal Statement: Students will discuss important skills that are often overlooked with job-seeking/interviewing.

ASCA Mindsets & Behaviors Standard (s): M 6. Positive attitude toward work and learning. B-LS 5. Apply media and technology skills. B-SMS 10. Demonstrate ability to manage transitions and ability to adapt to changing situations and responsibilities. B-SS 1. Use effective oral and written communication skills and listening skills.

Procedures:

1. Lead a quick discussion with students asking the following questions:

   • What are some good ways to find job leads? (through contacts/people you know ,on-line, stop in to places and ask)

   • After applying, what is a good next step if you haven't heard anything? (reach out by phone or e-mail)

   • Why might an employer have trouble reaching you? (a BIG one could be you don't have voicemail set up - they may not e-mail you, depending on the business/stores/etc.)

2. What are some other reasons it makes sense to set up your voicemail now that you are getting older/looking for work? (many employers don't text work-related information, doctor's offices will not text, is professional courtesy, etc.)

3. Encourage students to set up voicemail. Many people have lost opportunities because they've missed calls.
