Question: Hi. I have spent hours searching through ebsco host with not a lot of success. Can you please tell me what to check and type in to get 10 references for a research paper. I checked soc. index, psy article in advanced search. I typed in interviewing, also interviewing jobs on first line, 2nd line process, 3rd healthcare. I tried different words on the lines too. I checked full text and peer.. I typed in from may 2010 to today. I want to write a research paper on the different types of interviews and the different processes that human resources in healthcare use to hire staff. I need to submit my research proposal by tomorrow, so if I can't find enough resources. I can change. Thanks for your time.

Hello Jodi
Usually for the topic that you are proposing , it is possible to combine Social Science Index FT, Academic Search Premier, CINAHL and Health Source Academic and try the search terms INTERVIEW PROCESS AND HEALTHCARE and check the full-text and peer-review boxes below your searchbox and see if you find anything useful. I would repeat that search by using the terms INTERVIEW PROCESS AND HUMAN RESOURCES and see what you find. If this does not work, then I would I would suggest that you give me a call sometime today. I will be in the office from now until 5pm CST, if you cannot find what you are looking for and we can try the searches together.
Thanks,
