Some individuals might provide information about skills, experiences, strengths, and weaknesses that have no relevance to the position for which they are interviewing. If this is the case, you might use a graphic organizer to help them connect their skills and experiences to the desired position. We advise that you break this activity up into smaller segments, so that the student is not required to complete this comprehensive worksheet in one sitting:

In order to align this intervention topic area with the unique needs of the student, do you need to create a graphic organizer in the View2do program?
