    Arrange an interview with a senior executive/partner/principal of a firm, preferably a

    business you are interested in. The manager must have EMPLOYEE supervision
    responsibilities. Your task in this interview is to identify the interviewee’s orientation
    and business philosophy toward key human resource management functions. A face-to-
    face interview is highly recommended, however, a phone interview is acceptable.

    The interviewee should not be:

    ● A family member
    ● A former supervisor
    ● A person from your current or past places of employment

    PRIOR TO THE INTERVIEW

    Develop a list of approx. 10 human resource-related questions you will ask that cover
    recruitment, staffing, staff motivation, employee development, and employee
    appraisal. (In your priority order). One question must cover the Supervisors viewpoint
    on the “competitive advantage through people”. I am available to review your questions
    if you desire feedback.

    DELIVERABLE

    Prepare a three-page, double-spaced paper that summarizes the responses and your
    analysis of the interview including:

    ● What you learned about supervising/managing others? Did you learn anything
    new? Did the interview clear up any misconceptions you had about HR and HR
    management?
    ● What did you agree with and disagree with?
    ● What was (were) the most memorable part(s) of the interview? Why?
    ● How did the responses of your interviewee compare to class readings and class
    discussions this far?
    ● What was the interviewee's thoughts on the “competitive advantage through
    people"?
    ● Summarize the interview and include your thoughts and feelings towards the
    professional you interviewed. Did you walk away with an overall view of this
    person's philosophy and values as they relate to HR management?
    ● Critically reflect on your own perceptions of HR management. What beliefs did
    you have going into the interview about HR management? Has anything changed
    for you?
    Please write an email or note to the person you interviewed thanking him/her for their
    time.

    Hand in:

    ● A maximum of three pages, double-spaced


    ● Include a cover page which indicates clearly the full name of the interviewee,
    their position title, their organization, address, date, type of interview (face to face
    or phone)
    ● Attach the list of your pre-interview questions to the document you submit.
    ● Attach a photocopy/copy of the Thank You note you sent to your interviewee.
