Blog 9 - Advisory Prep 3

1. State whether or not you currently have a mentor, and what the status of your interview is with that person (I have completed the interview, I have scheduled the interview, I have not scheduled the interview, etc).

• I have not scheduled the interview, but I will talk with him and schedule it next week.

2. At this point, your research is probably guiding your studies toward more specific areas within your topic.  Name the area or two you find most promising and explain your reasons.   

• Management of the Food company: The reason I chose this route was because I want to show the customer, who eating the product, how each of the product goes to different processes.

• How the food can be contaminated or prevent a food contamination: Based on the research I made safety and sanitation of the plantation is a huge issue with the companies reputation.

• How the consumers fully accept the product or enjoy the product: Most of the food business don't provide all of the ingredients with which they used in the product. My mentor has stated that the opinion of the costumers is important because that's where we receive the money.

3. What kinds of sources do you think will help you in the next month to gain more research depth?  Where will you go to get them?

• The sources that I think are books based on the food business managing or books base on management available in a library.
  
  
• As for component one I will be working in the production room to know how the process of the product is made.

• I want to take online classes from the LA county library based on business ethics, managements,dealing with difficult people will help me on the costumer service, etc.

4. Write down a possible EQ.  Please don't worry about wording other than ensuring that it provides the option for multiple correct answers.  At this point, the senior team is most interested in understanding your thought process.

• How can a food business fully operate with out no mistakes?
• What is the efficient way that a costumer is enjoying the product?

1. What has worked well for you concerning senior project this year?  What has made it a positive experience for you?  

Through out my senior project right now, it was simple to obtain a mentor because several of my sibling work for him, also I was debating about two topics before school started and came to a conclusion of doing business, and the rest came as we approach the end of the year. In addition, the research is going well because I'm obtaining the knowledge and facts of each article. Plus my mentor Andres Jaramillo recommended me read over the manuals of the accounting system they are at the business and books he considers it will help me on the senior project. The most important reason this experience positive is because of my mentor, without him I wouldn't be able to go through with it and the help of the senior team teachers on explaining what to do on each assessment. Also on me because I choose a topic that will help be on the future as well.

2. What are you finding difficult concerning senior project?  How can you adapt to make that portion work better for you?  How might the senior team help?

The difficulty on the senior project would be what my senior project will be, for example I am food industry which I can go on the  Food Safety & Quality Assurance; Processing Food, Nutrition, Labeling & Packaging, Integrated Resource Management, From the Plant to the Store, From the Store to the Shopper, The Customer Service Chain, or Food Preparation at Home, but I willing to do all of them that's is what I'm debating about. Well all this factor go together so its mandatory that its food industry management. I can adapt to it by talking to people and having different points of view to have the last straw. The senior team can't help because it has to be me who make the choice on what route I want willing to take.
