  1. Unit 9 project and preparation for job interviewing Elisa C. Martin Capstone faculty member

  2. Unit #9 Powerpoint project • Make sure to use the “How To” links on the Project page. • Make sure to download the checklist • The checklist will help you make sure you meet all the points required for the project. • Make sure to meet the minimum slide requirement – title page and reference page do not count in the minimum required 12 to 15 slides.

  3. Unit #9 powerpoint project • PowerPoint Project: Transnational Crime • Compare and contrast two separate cultures and ethnicities that harbor ill-will toward the United States • This means two different societies. Please do not include the United States. • In a 12-15-slide PowerPoint presentation, please compare both of your selections and be sure to discuss the role that socialization and religion play in shaping the beliefs of these cultures.

  4. Unit #9 powerpoint project Be prepared to provide evidence about: • Why these beliefs are formed. • How culture and religion shaped these beliefs. • Why these cultures are militant in their beliefs toward the United States.

  5. Preparing for a Job interview • Appearance: • Cleanand neat. • Professional – hair should be natural in color. • Fingernails should be groomed. Women with painted nails should ensure the color is subdued and they are not too long. • Tattoos should be covered. Many criminal justice professionals have them, but cover them at work. • Many employers are not hiring folks who cannot cover up their tattoos. • Remove excessive piercings. Women should wear only one pair in an interview.

  6. rESEARCH THE ORGANIZATION • Understand the organization’s mission statement and its philosophy. • Learn about its demographics. • Understand its organizational chart.

  7. DE-CLUTTER YOUR SURROUNDINGS • Make sure your car is clean on the outside and the inside. If your potential employer walks you to your car and sees a mess, that is an indication that you are disorganized. • Make sure your cell phone message is brief and professional. Your potential employer will not want to sit through a lengthy song to leave a message and will not appreciate a smart-aleck greeting.

  8. Preparing for A Job interview • Make sure your credit debt is as low as possible. • Clean up, if not delete, allyour social media accounts: • Employers are requiring access to your Facebook accounts (yes, that is legal). • Law enforcement will ask for access to personal records that even the private sector is beginning to examine.

  9. Preparing for A Job interview • Be confident, not arrogant. • Everyone is nervous in an interview, so how you control your nervousness is important. Law enforcement agencies watch how you handle yourself. • Be sincere. Honesty is always the best policy. • Make sure you have plenty of copies of your resume when you go to interviews. • Take special effort in your preparation of the resumes – put them into protectors. • Also make sure you have a cover letter.

  10. The SECOND INTERVIEW Follow up • For a second interview, find out if you have competitors. Ask whether your interviewers have any questions that you may answer to help them decide on you for the position. • Ask for feedback. Interviewers may not be able to provide this because of legal reasons, but it doesn’t hurt to ask.

  11. Preparing for THE PANEL • Sometimes you will be interviewed by a panel that includes two to six people. • Be prepared to answer any question. It is OK to take a minute to answer a question. Pausing will help interviewers understand that you think before you speak.

  12. conclusion • The bottom line to interviewing is looking and acting professional. • Presentation is everything. • Remember you have earned a formal education. Sell that! Help your interviewers understand that you have the ability to learn anything.
