Identify a profession that is somehow related to professional writing, research anything/everything related to that job, then write a report explaining everything about the job. Your audience for this report is an individual who wants to learn more about this specific kind of job and who want to know what they would need to do to prepare to succeed in that job.
You are welcome to make this project your own, and put your own spin on it. But to give you some direction, some questions you might consider researching and answering might include, but are not limited to, the following:
- What is the central work of the job?
- What kinds of writing (specific genres) does this job require?
- What other kinds of work does this job require?
- What kind of preparation would a desirable candidate need to have?
