 * These are people who can attest to your abilities as an employee
 * **Can include:** current or past supervisors/employers, teachers, coaches, priests/pastors, counselors, etc.
 * **Cannot include:** family members, friends, people you know only on a personal basis
 * The interviews will be conducted over three different weeks. Sign up for the day that you want.
 * Copy down the date/time/place of your interview. You will be given a pass to get to your interview site 5 minutes before it is to begin.

==Note: Failure to turn in any of the above items will result in a zero for the entire project (no partial credit). NO ASSIGNMENT WILL BE ACCEPTED LATE, EVEN IF YOU HAVE AN EXCUSED ABSENCE. As with any endeavor to get a job, if you fail to do what is necessary to get a job, you will not get it. The world does not stop and wait for you. Be forewarned!==

Also, my expectation is that you can actually use these things to get a job within the next year. Take the time to do it right! It will only serve to help you get a job!
