PROJECT OVERVIEW: Look
at the valuable relationships your school has with it's many vendors.
Ask one of the vendors to arrange for a person from their Human Resources
Department to conduct a mock interview with a former local graduate who
is pursuing a career in a field that is related to their business.
Via a video conferencing listserv seek a school close to the vendor who
will host the interviewer while the interviewee is located at your school.
NOTE: We arranged the interview through
our computer hardware vendor.
