Succeeding in the Interview — Quiz

Question 10 • Career Planning and Development

Which action is an example of making a direct request for an interview?

Answer
A
calling a company’s human resources department
B
asking for a meeting to learn more about the industry
C
emailing an employer for an appointment to discuss a job opening
D
contacting an employment agency

Explanation

A direct request for an interview asks an employer for an appointment to discuss a specific job opportunity. Emailing an employer to discuss a job opening does this, so the correct choice is “emailing an employer for an appointment to discuss a job opening.” Asking to learn about an industry is informational rather than a job interview request.
