How I Got My Mentorship

Since my topic is on business when I went and talked to the owner about a possible mentorship he told me to come in a week after I talked to him. It was kinda out of place since all I would be doing is talking to him. After the time passed I went in and talked to him and explained what I would be doing with him and he was ok with it but he asked me if I was an adult. I was wondering why he asked me that and apparently it's because he had to contact his insurance to see if I could be covered in case of any accident. I had to wait several weeks to hear from him again and it went into the beginning of school, so in the mean time I had to pick another topic but now thats where I will be doing my mentorship.

Blog 4: Interview Preparation

1. Who do you plan on interviewing? Why?
 I plan on interviewing my mentor Alex since he is usually the one at the business and deals with the customers more often then the other workers so he has a better understanding of how to run it than others.
2. You have to ask 5 questions.  What additional questions do you plan to ask?

  1. Business often times requires a lot of time, do you find this to be true based on your experience? If so can you give me examples?
  2. What school or courses do you think are important in order to help you prosper in future businesses?
  3. Before opening this establishment what were your goals for this particular business?
  4. Is this your first business? If not can you share some of the other businesses you've had?
  5. What advice would you give a first timer?

3. What made you want to pursue a degree in clinical psychology? How long did it take you to obtain a degree in clinical psychology?
4. The most important thing I gained from this is experience is the fact that everything is time sensitive. You must be very focused on achieving your goal and must be very patient with everybody because everyone is different when is comes to talking their mind.
5. My senior project is going to be on clinical psychology. I've always shown an interest in psychology so it wasn't hard to attract me to that topic.
