EOC Week 3:

This particular eoc, if I remember correctly was about a movie we watched in my web portfolio calss called Sweet Cherry. One of the scenes in the movie shows the main character going out to a temp agency looking for a job. The question was what did she do right and what did she do wrong in the scene when inquiring about a job. Well first off her attire was above casual but it wasn't technically suitable for the business environment. A little too much i suppose. Next, she went in without having any idea on what she would like to do or what field she would like to go into. To add onto that she didn't really prepare for any of the questions asked by the man trying to help her, Very unprofessional and makes her look incompetent. What she did do right though was she knew what she didn't want and she was persistent. Sometimes in the business world people need you to persuade them into doing something that they have no problem doing. They just would like to gauge you tenacity. Other times they are right on the fence and just need that extra push. It's like that sometimes. All in all, she should have came better prepared, but i will borrow a bit of her persistence though when it's time for me to look for a job in my field.
