Roanoke College invites employers to collaborate with students enrolled in "The Art of the Interview," a course designed to develop essential interviewing skills and qualitative research techniques. Students will gain hands-on experience in crafting questions, conducting interviews, analyzing qualitative data, summarizing findings, and providing professional reports—all while applying ethical practices. By partnering with learners, employers can leverage fresh perspectives and creative insights that will benefit their projects.

Employers are expected to maintain regular communication with students, provide guidance, and ensure that all relevant information is shared throughout the project. Additionally, employers should be virtually present during the final presentation to provide constructive feedback on the learners' work.

At the conclusion of this collaboration, employers will receive a comprehensive final report summarizing the main findings and recommendations proposed by the students. Additionally, learners will present their results in a final presentation, providing an opportunity for the employer to engage with the findings and ask questions.
