For this report, you will research and analyze the companies (one per student) that you may want to target in your future job searches, and you will determine which company (one, both, or neither) fits your requirements.

The research paper (first and final draft) should follow the guidelines for an analytical report. The first draft will only be the 4 paragraphs of SWOT on your company. If there are 2 students in the group, your first draft will contain 8 SWOT paragraphs, and if there are three students in the group, your first draft will contain 12 SWOT paragraphs.

Because most of the information that will be presented in the report will be from secondary sources, you must follow the APA guidelines for in-text citations, and references, as well as the use of headings.
