Police Officer Interview Essay examples Unit 8 Assignment CJ340 06 Professor Anthony Scarpelli Peter bisher January 06, 2011 My first interviewee officers jack Davidson, patrolman from Somers point police department. When interviewing Patrolman Davidson, I found the following to be his impressions of the police force in general. Officer Davidson spoke of why ethics and character are important in the field of law enforcement. His response was that ethics and character go hand in hand. In law enforcement it seems that there are so many reasons to do the right thing. The reasons began with public opinion and also should include their influence on the youth who will be growing up to be citizens of the city, state, or country. If a police officer does not behave with ...show more content... They don't know how much was there in the first place. When asked if he felt that there is enough training offered in ethics at the police academy level the reply was that there is enough initial training offered in ethics for police at the academy level. To try to put too much information into the head of a person who is trying to learn all the laws and all the ethics, and maintain character traits that are necessary in order to be an exemplary officer. In Chapter 10 of Character and Cops by Edwin J. Delattre, the text states that "Instruction in ethics for police has to be more specific, precise, and respectful of time limits" (pg. 162, 2006). Ethics can also be taught or reinforced after the initial academy training by the partners that are provided to the officer. If a refresher training course is offered after an officer has been on the force for a year or two, it would be more benefit to them than an initial inundation of the information. I also asked Officer Davidson if ethics training should be offered as an on–going process for law enforcement officers. He answered me by saying that one can never know too much, you can never know it all. In order to continue to recall, or learn new methods to deal with every day situations and unique situations, one must continue to advance their knowledge; they must try to maintain a high level of education. A formal sitting is a good way to teach new ideas that have come up due to new problems that may Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Lifespan Interview Paper The Lifespan Interview The interview was conducted with a married female, 59 ½ years of age. The purpose was to document the subject's lifespan history with recollections of significant events in her development. The focus was to identify any dystonic outcomes during any of the stages of Erikson's personal developmental theory, theory of the mind, Levinson theory, attachment theory and Identity theory. It is anticipated that the questions could quarantine specific areas and incidents that may have obstructed any of the developmental theories thereby influencing the subject's later view of adolescent, young adult and middle age. The focus for the paper is inspired by Erickson's emphasis on the identity crisis as the "psychosocial ...show more content... Mistrust, (2) Autonomy v. Shame, Doubt, (3) Initiative v. Guilt, (4) Industry v. Inferiority, and (5) Identity v. Identity Confusion (). Also Levinson's theory, theory of the mind, attachment theory and identity theory. The questions were based on the outcomes of both syntonic and dystonic conflict resolutions of each stage documented by B and (). It is assumed that dystonic expressions in statements relating to each phase would contribute to some degree of identity confusion in adolescent as well as later life and perhaps provide some guidelines to a review of the subject's lifespan development. Stage 1 Questions: The question focused on trust, at which to test the degree that the subject is trusting or mistrusting person (). The question included the subject's trust of others and herself.

Examples Of In-Depth Interview To answer my research question, I chose semi–structured in–depth interviews because it particularly lends itself to exploring challenging and complex life situations such as the return to work following parental leave. According to Valerie Yow, "the recorded in–depth interview can offer answers to questions that no other methodology can provide" (Yow 2005, 9). In her introductory chapter on in– depth interviewing, Yow specifically mentions complex decisions as a case where in–depth interviews allow us to pose questions that remain invisible in statistics and official records. Thus, while the OECD family database statistics might provide us with useful information about Hungarian mothers' decisions concerning employment, in my research I would like to ask women to explain the various and differing factors contributing to these choices. ...show more content... 8 respondents were university graduates, 7 had high school diplomas and 1 interviewee completed a vocational secondary course. 10 interviewees worked in full–time jobs, 4 in part–time (6 hour) positions and 1 in a flexible work arrangement. One woman was currently on maternity leave, but before the birth of her second child, she had worked full time. Interviewees conducted a wide range of blue–, pink–, and white–collar jobs, and not all women carried out work according to their qualifications. For example, several university graduates worked in jobs not requiring tertiary studies. 10 of my respondents had one child, 2 women had two and 4 had three or more children. Youngest children were aged 7 months to 26 months at the time when the interviewees ended their parental leave . 9 of my interviewees were located in Budapest, while 7 lived outside of the capital: among them 6 lived in towns and one in a Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Personal Experience During an Interview Essay When I think of the word interview I think of it as a series of questions asked from one person to another to seek information. In my previous assessment we were asked to interview a fellow peer, on their personal experience of QIBT so far this year. We were not given any question, but made to think of our own. As we were interviewing our peer another peer was marking us on our overall ability to interview. This piece of reflective writing will be an explanation of what I thought my personal strengths and weaknesses were throughout my interview. Through reflecting on my previous interview I was able to pull apart both positives and negatives aspects of my interview allowing myself time to look into the effects that the negative ...show more content... Whilst the open ended questions allowed deeper responses as spoken about above it was also evident that these questions allowed Mary Doe to feel comfortable throughout the interview as she was allowed to express her own open thought rather than having a written script of multiple smaller closed ended questions. REF The safe environment was carried through the whole interview. I concluded the interview by asking Mary Doe if she had any concerns or further questions she would like to talk about. This continues the safe environment feel, which I created throughout the whole interview. Once finishing the interview I recall thinking that I had forgotten one major factor within the interview, which was taking notes. This would have to be my only major weakness that I found I had whilst interviewing Mary Doe. At the time I was so focused on eye contact, so it was really easy for myself to just ask the questions and get lost in the answer whilst trying to figure out what question to ask next. The lack of note taking in response to Mary Doe's answers left me forgetting to listen one hundred percent as I was switching focus to what came next. When researching how I can improve this skill there was a lot of positive feedback on how to strengthen this skill. One that I shall be focusing on for future interviewing opportunities is to continually jot down small phrases as spoken, any specific information that is useful Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Pursuing counseling as a career involves many years of formal study and certification or licensure. After receiving licensure to practice as a professional counselors it is a requirement to maintain involvement and certification in certain associations in order to hold your license. These association often require further education and/or professional practice in order to maintain membership in these associations.

I have conducted an interview with a professional counselor in order to further understand the experience of being a counselor. The interview that I conducted explores the requirements of maintaining and receiving a counselling career, the experience of being a counselor, and what characteristics or skills a professional may have.

Personal Interview Essay I think that conducting a personal interview like this was a great way to gain knowledge. When I talked with Mr. McCaskill, I learned a lot of things, most of them way beyond just the questions given to ask. We talked of different things that he experienced and many things that he has learned and researched over the years. It was very suprising, to be truthful, and we were actually able to carry very interesting conversations about the explosion. When it came to the community and the people around me, I learned a lot of how they acted during the time and somethings that they could have been thinking. Mr. McCaskill told me about the jokes his high school classmates made when the first nuclear explosion happened in Pennsyvania and how it thought it was funny that they made fun of the Soviets and later married one. He let me in on how people were worried about the Soviets, them gaining power, but when they saw the terrible safety haziards that caused the explosion, the feelings changed. Of course they felt sympathtic but to the most part, the feeling of worry was leaving. ...show more content... By interviewing someone on their personal experiences, it gives the person listening a chance to see something through another's eyes. In all reality, there is the possibility that the person might remember something wrong and after that, others may learn history wrong. Even with this, just listening to someone recollect on their past is an outstanding feeling. In a handful of documentaries, it includes people being interviewed and half of newcasts these days are the same way. I think interviews have become a major way people collect information today and has become an important part of making and reviewing Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Interview Essay Post Interview Findings: Dealing with Difficult People I was able to seek out and an experienced Pastor by the name of Bernadine Smith, the Pastor of Kingdom Ministries here in Dayton, Ohio. I must insert she is my Aunt and although I do not attend her ministry currently, has a child and now an adult, she plays a critical role as a spiritual mentor and confidant and extends to me wise and Godly counsel with respect to my school work and life affairs. She has been and continues to be a wealth of knowledge and support with my coursework. Encouraging me as well as providing me with "go to" reference materials as I request them. On this particular occasion we began discussing things of no consequence then the conversation ...show more content... From a spiritual perspective, we always want to show the love of Christ in our body language, tone, mannerism as not be offended. It can be perceived as hostile in nature of we do not think before we speak, causing further harm without rendering resolution. Often this behavior is not an attack on you, but merely whom you represent. The aim in my mind is to gain control in an open or private forum. Pastor Smith provided me with a thought learned early on in my class work as a Christian Counselor to which I recalled a table found in the writings of Dr. Gary Collins provided a perspective of effectively being able to communicate and table that list many of the characteristics and approaches that one could glean from and add to their personal accounts before speaking or communicating in the wrong manner. Proverbs chapter fifteen reminds me that " a soft answer turns away wrath but harsh words stir up anger (paraphrased) with that being ever so mindful to keep calm and let cooler heads prevail can allow for potential further conversation. Second Point from Interview: Known or Unknown I have to chuckle a little regarding this subtitle because we are faced with many different spirts; speaking from a spiritual perspective for a brief moment, and our discernment and prayer during this time should be ever present, yet I digress. It is my hope that one can be aware and vigilant regardless if we have a Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Leadership Interview Essay To inspire and influence others, a leader must possess many skills and abilities. As motivational speaker Peter Northouse, states, "a leader should be strong, but not rude; be kind, but not weak; be bold, but not bully; be thoughtful, but not lazy; be humble, but not timid; be proud, but not arrogant" (Northouse, 2013) Moving an entire group of individuals toward a singular goal is a considerable undertaking. Without effective communication skills and a clear vision of what needs to be accomplished, one will feel like they are trying to herd cats rather than leading. During my interview with Regina Martinez, BS RN and currently an Assistant Director of a home health agency, I discovered her leadership style matched the above quote. ...show more content... The success the company now enjoys is credited to Martinez's leadership, motivation, caring, and attention to detail. Delivering the medical care to a patient, in the comfort of their own home, by professional, caring medical staff is a much needed service in rural northeast Colorado. Martinez stated that in her past and current position, her goal has been to always lead by example. Martinez adamantly stated she would never ask an employee to do anything she herself was not willing to do. She stated she did not follow a particular leadership style, but has read several leadership and management books, articles and studies to become more effective. Martinez stated the book she references the most is Carl E. Larson and Frank M.J. LaFasto's Teamwork: What Must Go Right/What Can Go Wrong. Through their research they explored the eight properties of successful teams: a clear, elevating goal; a results–driven structure; competent team members; unified commitment; collaborative climate; standards of excellence; external support and recognition; and principled leadership. (Larson & LaFasto, 1989, p.8) Their insights into what makes a team successful have been used by countless leaders as a model for efficient and effective leadership.

Essay on Interview With a Friend Interview with A Friend When thinking of people I could possibly interview, and then deciding that most of them wouldn't be very interesting, I decided to interview a friend of mine. N.H. At first glance he seems like any other 15 year old but once you get to know him, you'll soon realize that, that isn't the case. Firstly he's moved around and experienced more things then most people his age, even most people in general, and has developed a unique personality because of this. N. was born in 1985, in Finland but moved shortly afterwards to England and then again moved after only a few years to Malawi in Africa. The reason for them moving was that his father's job bored him. He basically grew up as an ex pat in Africa and even ...show more content... The one dog actually ran up to one of the armed men wagging his tail , almost as if he wanted them to play with him," N. laughs, "soon afterwards we moved to England realizing that we couldn't spend the rest of our lives in an environment like that." N. hated England. He was used to the warm climate of Malawi, and in a way, missed his old life. Seeing as both his mum and dad had to work, N. was sent to a boarding school which he despised. "It was the worst time of my life, I simply did not like it," while shaking his head, but then he looks up and starts smiling, "I did have a few good times with some friends I had made there, like this one time we were playing softball and I whacked the ball into a window. We all blamed this one Irish guy that we all hated." He had a smirk on his face while he said that, but it wasn't always like that. "One thing I do regret though, was that I was a push over. Looking back, I could've been a lot more assertive instead of taking the piss like I usually did back then." Fortunately, N. isn't like that anymore. As I'm interviewing him, it's obvious he has a strong self–confidence. Once again, N. moved with his parents but this time it was to Denmark . He's been living In Copenhagen for the past 5 years and says he enjoys the "freedom" he's never had. "Growing up in places like Africa and then going to a boarding school in England, you were never allowed to just go into town when ever you wanted to. It was almost Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Cultural Interview Essay CULTURAL INTERVIEW My cultural interview was with a coworker, 28 years of age and of Hispanic descent. While conducting the interview I learned a lot about the Hispanic culture. Many Hispanics like to be called Latino (a). Some do not like to be referred to as Mexican when they are from other countries other than Mexico. Hispanics also use slang within their culture just like African Americans. Within the culture the male is the dominant figure in the household. All the decisions that affect the family go through the father. If there is no father in the house, the oldest son fulfills that role. The older son may drop out of school so that they may assist the mother at the house in the absence of the father. Many Hispanics ...show more content... Their family got together every opportunity they could. They had many traditional things they did as a family such as a gathering of family every year for her grandmother's death, but as a celebration. Every year on Christmas Eve her family would also draw together to exchange gifts at different relative's houses. The interviewee stated this became a tradition for her family because the married people in the family had to attend festivities at their spouses' relatives. English and Spanish are both spoken in the Hispanics households. The majority of the older members of the family only speak Spanish. My interviewee stated that she did not know how to speak Spanish, but her mother did and fluently. She stated that her mother has always told her that she needed to know Spanish because that was her heritage, but she never felt it very necessary. The Hispanic culture celebrates the coming of age which is called a 15 or Quinceaneras. The Quinceanernas is usually a big production for the girls. The girls have escorts and dress in a formal type ballroom dress and have many of her friends and relatives there for the celebration. My interviewee stated that she did not have a Quinceaneras because she did not really get into it. She also stated that she got pregnant and did not want her parents to spend all that money for the celebration. The boys on the other hand do not go all out with this type of celebration, but instead celebrate at their Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Along with providing optimal care, nurses are also responsible for interpreting and accurately documenting large amounts of information.

Primarily she is responsible for obtaining data such as: patient demographics, laboratory work, radiology, and appointment utilization, from multiple data banks within the military hospital. Shadow her for a week and you will see her in a variety of roles.

The Importance Of Interviewing A Patient Discuss the questions that would be important to include when interviewing a patient with this issue. The provider should also inquire about the onset of symptoms (abdominal pain, and nausea), previous history associated with the symptoms, about any traumas, and urinary or bowel symptoms. Inquiring about the patient sexual history is important too and the "5 Ps" (partner, practice, protection, past STDs, and pregnancy prevention) can be used as a guideline to determine the patient risk factors for developing a PID.

Reflection And Reflection Of Interview Reflection of interview I've had quite the learning experience over the last few weeks. I had a chance to obtain valuable information and support from my principal. I learned so much about the administration role and how difficult it can be. When I began my interview, I felt overwhelmed and excited at the same time. My principal is also my mentor; she has been very supportive of me pursuing my dreams to be in administrator. As I conducted my interview I learned so much about the principal's role. I asked my principal a series of questions. The questions were based on the Interstate School Leadership Licensure Consortium Standards (ISLLC). My first question was based on educational programs.

I look at the type of student I want my school to produce and I surround myself with a faculty and other staffs that not only share in the mission, but also will help every student succeed.

At first glance the terms "success" and "aging" seem to be in conflict to each other. When asking people about aging, their answers have many facets that are also found in psychological definitions: successful aging is seen as health, maturity and personal growth, self–acceptance, happiness, generativity, coping, and acceptance of age–related limitations.

This question can be seen as a follow up question of the first. If there are any negative aspects she sees in life, this question will present the details. 3. Where did you see yourself at this age? This question might explain any happiness or unhappiness my aunt experiences. Her past ideas about her life could give clues as to why she is happy or unhappy. 4. Is there something that surprised you about aging? This is a follow up to question 3. 5. If you could go back, what changes would you make? This question gives my aunt the opportunity to reflect on her past and think about what she would change if she could. 6. If you could tell your younger self something, what would it be?
