Interview Presentation
Scenario
Imagine that you are in the last round of job interviews for a position you really want. Your final task to complete for the hiring team is a presentation of who you are and how you hope to contribute to the team, specifically:
· You have been asked to present your ideas on how to advance a prevention and wellness project related to a Healthy People goal.
· You will be presenting to most of the hiring team, except for one person who works remotely. You have been asked to submit audio of your presentation so she can hear what you have to say.

Before you proceed, take some time to review the feedback received from your instructor on your assignments in this course. Your job is to integrate what you have learned from those assignments into this final presentation.
