Student Opportunity: The Interview
Sara Silverstri is launching an exploratory initiative called ‘The Interview’:a select group of students (2-3) will volunteer to work with Dr. Silverstri for a few days to prepare and conduct an audio/video and written interview on a prominent political topic (involving students and/or academics) or to discover a living or past figure in the field of politics and policy making. The interview will then be published on the departmental blog.
This experience will enable you to apply your existing knowledge, develop new professional skills (to put on your cv) and create new friendships with the student community. To apply send Sara Silvestri an email with a paragraph explaining your motivation and experience and if you have it attach your cv. Deadline: Monday 29 Nov 2021, 9am.
MAKE SURE THE SUBJECT LINE SAYS “the interview application”. Messages that have an empty or wrongly named subject line risk being discarded.
Student Engagement Forum
The International Politics Department is always looking for feedback from our excellent students. If you’d like to join the Student Engagement Forum please contact Sara Silverstri (Sara.Silvestri@city.ac.uk).
