“Preparing for the Job Interview: Know Thyself” by Katy
Piotrowski
Write a humorous directional process essay on ONE of the
following prompts:
 what not to do in the workplace (how not to impress your
boss, how not to cooperate with co-workers, how not to
get a raise, etc)
 how to get rid of a roommate without committing a crime
 how not to impress a date
Your process must include a minimum of three steps. Be certain
your essay has a clear thesis statement that clearly articulates
the point you’re making. (e.g. Everyone wants to know what to
do to impress a date, but knowing what not to do can be just as
important.)
