The interview I completed was a Level 3 interview do to the fact that I was in an

unfamiliar setting ( a coffee shop that I seldom go to) where I interviewed I barista working

there, who I have never previously seen or encountered (her name was Haley Hoekstra

“What’s your name, and how do you spell it?” :“Haley Hoekstra (+ spelled out)”

“Do you go to college at MSU?”: “I do, I’m a Senior this year”

“So how do you feel about graduating this year?”: “It’s kind of scary, because I don’t know exactly

what I’m going to be doing after school, I have a general idea, but I mean, it’s my fourth year, so I’m kinda ready to

go.”

“Right. What have you been majoring in?”: “From the beginning? Because I’ve switched it a few

times.” “Sure, just tell me everything.” “Ok, yeah. So I came in, I’m from Grand Rapids, so only like an hour

away, but I came in, as a freshman. Majoring in business, just because I didn’t really know what I wanted to do, and

it seemed like a safe option. Took a few business classes, realized that I hated it, then I changed to undecided, and

then I read some stuff about the advertising major, and thought that would be interesting. I really like psychology,

and so I liked how it was applied to the business world, kind off. So I majored in advertising a little bit, and then last

year I switched to communication, and then I added in a focus, so now I’m communication with with a focus in

health and intercultural.

“What do you think you want to do once you get out of college?”: I’m trying to decide where I want to

live. I really want to live in kind of a bigger city, so staying in Michigan, Detroit. I really want to go into health

promotion, so teaching people about ways to be healthy and educating people in inner city areas.”

“Right. So do you think your going to keep going to school, or do you think you’re going to find a job

straight out of college?” : I will probably find a job straight out of college, because it’s not required for my major.”
 “You said you think you’re planning on staying in Michigan?”: “I would like to get out of Michigan.I’d

like to live out west, or down south, just because it’s warmer weather, but if I were to it would probably be back to

Grand Rapids or Detroit”

“Have you always lived in Michigan?”: “Yeah, I’m from Grand Rapids, and I’ve lived there ever since I

came here.”

“What made you decide to work here?”: “At Biggby? It’s super close so it’s about a five minute walk

away, and I don’t have a car, so that was kind of a big thing, I wanted to live somewhere close by, and I’ve been

working at coffee shops since I was 16, so it’s just east. And also, I get free coffee, so that’s always a plus.”

“Do you live on or off campus?”: “ I live off campus.I live in a house.”

“That’s all I have, thank you so much!”
