Job Interview Reflection

  1.  I felt very confident and calm when I was being interviewed by my classmate. I believe that seeing an interview from the employer’s perspective makes you more prepared because you know what to expect and what to do and how to act during a real interview for a job.

 

2. I felt good interviewing my classmate, I didn’t feel nervous in anyways because by practicing job interview this will also help them to get prepared when they’re going to apply for a job.

 

3. I think that I could’ve done better with the questions and how to respond to them and added a little more detail.

 

4. Some advice that I would give is to review most common interview questions for the job that you’re applying for so you can know what to expect. always arrive on time or even early, and make good impressions.

 

5. you should dress in very nice clothes as if you were going to church, you should behave very calm and nice, you should bring your resume, folder, or a briefcase with your records and files in, references, contact info and any questions that the interviewer would like to know about you.

6. I think that this class activity was very fun and a good way on how to prepare for a real job interview, this is an important life skill because you cant get a job if you don’t know what you are doing how to dress or how to act.

7. Tell me about yourself? What made you apply for this job?

– Hello, my name is Jesse Darkwa I am 16, I attend Joliet West Highschool I have 2 siblings I also play basketball. I wanted to apply for this job because I believe that i can be able to be a good fit in your work field to bring major projects and ideas to help establish them.

Martin Luther King Jr. National Holiday

We started celebrating this national holiday after the assassination of Martin. one Congressman called John Conyers Jr. of Michigan introduced the first legislation seeking to make King’s birthday, Jan. 15 a federal holiday but changed to January 21st. The origins of this holiday are based on racism, politics, and conspiracy. We celebrate this day in honor of the life and achievements of Martin Luther King Jr, who was a powerful influential American civil rights leader.  Martin Luther King Jr. wasn’t an ordinary person but he grew up and became the predominant leader of the Civil Rights Movement to end racial segregation and discrimination in America. during the 1950s and 1960s and a leading spokesperson for nonviolent methods of achieving social change. I do celebrate MLK day because what Martin did and sacrificed for this nation was legendary including his famous I have a dream speech and proving that we are all equal no matter what skin color, race, or any differences.

Black History Month-Lebron james

What inspires me about LeBron James is that he wants everyone to be equal and no matter the skin color, no matter the race, no matter who you are he says that we all have to understand that we all having equal rights. Lebron made his statement during a game vs the Washington Wizards by collaborating with Nike by wearing one black sneaker and one white Nike sneaker each with the word “Equality” stitched on the heel in gold letters he also posted his shoes on Instagram after the game captioning “Together we will persevere through all adversity, negativity and turn it into happiness and love! #LiveLaughLove #striveforgreatness🚀”. These are the things that make me inspired about Lebron because he wants good for America and for the people to know that we all are equal understanding what we stand for and how powerful we are as men and as women, Black or White or Hispanic. America is a very beautiful country, and we should never tolerate person dictate how beautiful and how powerful we are just because our skin color is different, race, nationality to try to separate us by our differences we should all stay humble and treat everyone with respect.

Superbowl Commercials 2018

-The purpose of this video is to let people buy tide and that it will help your clothes making them clean and keeps the clothes from shrinking and wrinkling in the washer.

-There was only one viewpoint and that was to persuade many Americans who are watching the Superbowl to buy tide products which will make your clothes smell and feel fresh.

-The commercial wasn’t that efficient because people know what tide is and many prefer to want funny laughable commercial.

-The purpose of this video is to show viewers how bud light manages to come through and saves the day.

-there was only one viewpoint and that was to show people that bud light is the best choice for many events including the Superbowl.

-this was an efficient commercial because the soldiers thought the bud knight was going to help them in battle but he was going to a miniature store to buy bud light.

-The purpose of this video is to show which is better hot vs. cold or in this case blaze hot Doritos or ice cold Mnt dew.

-There were two view points in the commercials and it was shown by the Doritos with a big  flames lighting the room around and for Mnt dew the room was looking very chill with everything turning into ice.

– This was efficient because these two items are very popular today even with involving in the Superbowl, this is to persuade the audience because they know at this time of year your getting ready to buy many food and drinks for the party.

“Social Issue Research Topic”

-My social issue is about abortion and why women should consider about keeping the child.

-Abortion is a big issue because the killing of an innocent human being is wrong even though he/she has not fully developed yet. many people disagree and think that the mother of the unborn child should do abortion because it’s her choice and she has rights to do whatever she wants.

-There are many ways to avoid abortion I believe that women should consider using birth controls because it prevents pregnancy  but ask your doctor for prescription ones, another way to prevent getting pregnant is have your male partner  using condoms before having sex, or letting him have a vasectomy wich  the tube that carries the sperms is cut of and he won’t be able to deposit sperms.

  • A pro to the solution is that women will be less likely to get pregnant and therefore she won’t be able to commit abortion.
  • a con to the solution is that abortion or reducing pregnancy reduces the chance of other mothers or families looking for adoption because many women cant conceive.

Audience questions?                                                                                                                  -Do you agree/disagree that women should do an abortion even if they’re a victim of rape or have unprotected sex and now pregnant,/  or should women put their kids up for adoption for other families to adopt them?

Play-Doh that represents me.

This mini model of a snowman represents me I was going to do a basketball but it was kinda complicated so I decided to do a snowman. and the snowman represents me during the winter time I would go outside and try to make one, this also represents me because a snowman also is a symbol of Christmas and I love to celebrate Christmas with my friends and family. I also searched up the meaning of a snowman and I learned that The white snow stands for the purity of souls filled with God’s grace. The circular snowballs represent Gods everlasting love.The pieces of coal used to make the eyes, mouth, and buttons symbolize Gods almighty power. The carrot nose reminds us that God gives us everything we need to live and grow. The history of snowmen is that they were first invented in 1380 by a man named Mr.Eckstein and since then the evolution of snowman’s changed, from famous snow sculptures to normal or odd ones around neighborhoods.  I also chose snowman that represents me is because I am a chill person cause the snowman is made up of snow and the snow is cold and chill that’s also me because am a good guy, I am pretty cool with other people or just hanging out.

What is your stance on abortion?

After i went to i side with.com about abortion is that on one of the polls that  38% of votes are on pro life and 62% of votes are Pro-Choice. what is abortion? abortion is the termination of a human pregnancy throughout the first 28 weeks of pregnancy. a lot of people including pro life groups, churches, and governments all want to close and shut down abortion center across america because killing a human that is  developing in a women is very inhumane and disgraceful and shocking to many especially teen. But most abortions happen because of rape or unprotected sex, and its hard for a women to either chose to keep the child for the rest of her life or terminate it on average 3,000 unborn children are still killed every day through the ages of 16-38.  Pro choice is when a mother gets to chose between nursing the newborn or terminating it and she has the rights to do what ever she wants, now from my stance i would be pro-life because everyone has the right to life including babies who are still developing in the womb and i hope that all women around the world make a better choice  to keep the child.
