Informational Interview Synopsis

Unit 7: Informational Interview Synopsis: For your course project, you will be submitting a paper that explores an area of lifespan development that applies to your professional goals and values. For this assignment, you will provide a synopsis of the informational interview with the person you identified in Unit 3.

For this assignment, write a brief narrative that describes the responses your interviewee offered to the questions listed in your Unit 4 assignment. Do not simply reproduce the questions and replies. Your narrative should integrate the following elements:

  • Whom did you interview?
  • What were your questions?
  • A summary of your findings from each question, including the best stories and quotes in the interviewee’s words.
  • Any theme(s) that seemed to pervade the interview.
  • Your overall reaction to the information you gathered in the interview.
