EOC: Sexual Harassment

What did you learn?

During the evaluation I learned how to evaluate myself to see how motivated I am. I feel that me and my group members have many of the same issues in common. We all are motivated to get through school and continue to get good grades while doing it.

What caught you by surprise?

It wasn’t very surprising to find out that we all want to do good in school and that we are all being able to be successful up until this point.

How prepared were you?

I was prepared. The questions on the exam were fairly simple and it didn’t take much thought process to have to answer them. It was mainly about opinion.

Evaluate the individual members of your group.

By name, how did they participate?

Breann seems very focused. I don’t spend much time with her around school so answering the questions were a little more difficult than the other students.

Hannah, is personable and I already knew the answers from being in class with her over the last two years.

Gloria, is hard working and ready to take her education to the next level with getting her “dream job”.

Do you think they (by name) could be viable for a real job? Explanation.

Both Hannah and Gloria have a lot of motivation and great qualities to be viable for their “dream job”.
Breann seem like a hard working student and her goals are set to be a hard working employee.

Would you want them to represent your school in a job interview situation as a graduate of The Art Institute?

How could this experience be improved for you? For the class?

Stolen Valor Lawsuit

If a company is asking if you have ever been in the service than they should do the research to find out if it’s true or not. The company was wrong in this situation because they did not research the qualifications. In this case they hired the employee based off of their preferences to hire a veteran over a non-veteran and not off of legitimacy within their application. The company should have taken the extra time to research the applicant’s information to save them from the potential lawsuit they would face in court.

EOC Stolen Valor

is stolen valor free speech or not? look up articles and my opinion as an hr management to fire or what?

Some job applicants go too far when they lie about their military awards, and claiming medals for heroism that they did not earn. Stolen Valor in human resources can create a huge legal issue for both the hiring company and the job applicant. Most companies have to follow hiring procedures when looking for potential employee’s, when an applicant lies on the application this puts them less qualified for the position when it comes to experience.
If I were in a position to hire an applicant and I found out they had lied on the application, I would follow the company procedures as far as termination or the next steps. I would not judge them so much on Stolen Valor but the fact that they lied at all is unacceptable.Why would a company want to keep an employee who is not trust worthy? The applicants that could potentially be more suitable for the job have now been over looked because of the fraud.
I dis like this because they are liars. I agree with the Stolen Valor Act that makes it a Federal offense to lie about being a hero.
