Writing assignment #1

This assignment is an exercise to help understand the type of writing we will be introduced to in our future career field. In doing so, we will be conducting an interview and writing an analysis on the information collected throughout the interview. From this interview, we are opened up to a different way of speaking and writing. This will allow us to prepare for future interviews and other situations involving this particular writing and speaking. Writing assignment #1 will allow us to explore our interested career field a little more and will give us practice at real world experiences.


1. Why would we use non-academic sources?

2. Is there a specific length that the interview has to be?

3. What type of questions should I be asking in the interview?
