Week 4 Reflection: RISE Peer Review

The purpose of this activity is to provide positive and constructive feedback to Amy Killgore to ensure future success any endeavor she pursues. Interaction with peers covering assignments is vital to the growth of ones academic pursuit.

Amy, first of all let me congratulate you on coming to the end of our bachelor degree pursuit! I have enjoyed being your classmate all these months. I liked the overall feel of your video. You seemed to enjoy playing the interviewer just as much as the interviewed. This made me revisit my video to see if I appeared to have as much fun as you did! I really enjoyed how you used completely different clothing articles as well as it seemed as if you changed your hair as well. Well done!

As you were listing your strengths I noticed you said "I enjoy working hard". Although we all can relate to this statement as we come to the end of our degree program what you did you actually mean by this? Does this mean you enjoy difficult intellectual challenges? Does this mean you enjoy physical labor?

Have you considered using a different background? This really is a small issue and a bit of nitpicking by me but I found myself looking at your wooden blinds in the background. Also you might consider not mentioning that you struggle with spelling. I feel like in our industry that's something pretty important so if I were you I don't think I would mention that. I also saw in your self critique you mentioned needing to work on the eye contact issue. I would agree with that. I do not think it was a major issue and honesty I might not have even wrote about it had you not mentioned it in your brief summary.

Perhaps you could add more insight as to how you could grow in your industry. Tell the interviewer what your dream job is and make it known you are very much willing to accept any position that would allow you to work your way up the ladder. I thought overall your interview video was good. Like I said above you really seemed to have fun in the video and it made it very watchable in that sense. I have no doubt that in the near future you will be able to apply your interview skills in your pursuit of your dream job. Fantastic job Amy, as we wrap up your collegiate tenure I want to congratulate you on all the hard work and dedication we both know it has taken throughout these past two years. Please keep in contact as I look forward to keeping you in my network of colleagues!
