Michele Armstrong from Vulcan Inc.
I thought it was really good that Michele came to our class it was a good chance to see what employers are looking for when they interview people. Michele talked about Vulcan and Paul Allen how the company wasn’t looking for new employees and how the company wasn’t really producing new types of software. She did however gave me ideas on how to present myself to employers and if I was to start a business how to look at interviewees and determine which ones would be the best fit for the company. Another great thing that Michele went over was looking at what the income should be for the industry your looking at, and that you should do research on the company you want to apply for and find out what the median annual earnings are so you know how much to expect. Michele also went over where to look for jobs she brought up a few good places to look for example Craigslist and Linkedin just to name a few. Then Michele went into employee handbooks and how important they are for the employer and the employee. The great thing about a handbook is you can use it to enforce the rules and refer back to it to see how to handle specific situations. I came to the conclusion from Michele’s speech that I will higher some one to higher and firing of my employees. Some one for HR that can know all the regulations and make sure that every one is obeying the rules of the company.
