Discussion
For this discussion prompt, you will write an "elevator speech." Every job seeker needs an elevator speech, which is a succinct, 30-second to 1-minute speech that summarizes all of your experience, your current occupation, and a few important reasons why you would be a perfect fit for a particular job. You can think of an elevator speech as a sort of quick sales pitch to get a potential employer interested in hiring you.
Craft an elevator speech that articulates your past experience, your current work, and the specific qualifications that make you an ideal candidate for a particular job. (Ideally, this job would be one that you're interested in pursuing after earning your degree, or you might even craft an elevator speech for a possible promotion at your current profession. Also, you might consult the Jobs in English tab, located under the Course Home page in our online classroom, to find a profession suited to your particular skillset.)
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
