Information interview

Information interview

I read a couple of webside about an informational interview. It is really helpfull to findout some information and get some experince about this skills.I know this webside that an informational interview is not the same as a job interview. It’s an opportunity to find out more about a particular career or company. These sorts of interviews can be valuable for anyone, not just those looking for a new job. You might consider this approach if:

i)You’re a recent graduate exploring possible career opportunities.

ii)You have an established career, but would like to discover what it might be like to work for another company.

III)You feel as if you’ve done as much as you can in your current job and are interested in changing fields.

By meeting with somebody experienced in the field you’re considering, you can find out more about what the work is really like, about how much it pays, and about the drawbacks.

You now need to gather more in-depth information. Your best source of this information are people who have firsthand knowledge of the occupations in which you are interested. Identify who they are and conduct informational interviews with them
