Interview Assignment
Interview TWO people at health care businesses-one who has a financial position and another in an administrative or managerial position. You may not interview your MENTOR as one of your TWO mandatory interview candidates. If you interview more than two, then the mentor is acceptable.
Call ahead of time and set an appointment with the office manager, department manager or someone who olds a similar position. Explain that you are a BSHCA student at PMI and ask for an appointment for a short interview to better understand the healthcare institution they are representing. You can explain what you are trying to accomplish with your project.
You must do your interview in person or over the phone-via email is not acceptable!
During your interview, ask the questions below, along with 3 more (for each person) of your own creation. Afterward, write a 3+ page paper (double-spaced, Times New Roman font, and on a separate Word document) in which you:
- List the questions asked and answers given during each interview
- Summarize what you learned during each interview
