post # 6

I'm planning to interview a friend of mine who graduated with an associate degree in PTA and he is recently hired at a clinical office. Therefore, he definitely will be the most suitable person for me to interview. Certainly, he is now having a work status that might be different than the status he had when he was still in school. Thus, my researches questions will be the following
1-How does your progress from being a student to graduation and then to work as clinical assistant affect (modify) your status? And what you think the most important involving circumstances shaped your status?
2- What kind of status do you think the new job gives you? And do you satisfy with this status?3-how this status changed and how it affects your life traits of working and to what extent this status has changed?
4-what circumstances were involved to stimulate your status to change (money-high position-family obligations- friends)?
However, in order to find out about his status, so I had to set up some relevant questions that subjectively will aid in figuring out how his personal experience in the clinical office influenced his status. The following questions will help me to find out more about his status now and before.
1-What was your daily life when you were in school? And does being in school gives you status?
2- How this life in school helped you to succeed and fulfill your career?
3- Is there any obstacles faced you? And how you overcome on these obstacles?
4- How your life changed when you got this new job?
5- How you feel towards your job? Are you proud of your job and why?
6- Did this job give you a new status? And how would you define this status?
7- How surrounding people influence your view (co-workers, supervisor, and patients)? And how you feel in return of this influence?
8- What do you wish for your children? Do you wish for them to have the same status as you? And why?

    This looks good. A couple suggestions: in addition to asking about status, think about other ways to get at this: how do family members, co-workers, patients, supervisors each view him, and how does he feel about this treatment, or other questions along those lines. Remember also to think about follow-ups.


    Also, you want to post your *research question* in addition to these interview questions.

  2. Hany - Good revisions! Sorry I didn't see and comment on this earlier. You're definately ready to do the interview. Remember to keep it open-ended so the conversation can go where it needs to. Good luck!
