Career Corner
|
As the semester winds down, you are likely making plans for the summer. Summer is a good time to clarify career goals. Take time to reflect on what you have learned through jobs, volunteering, coursework, internships, and campus involvement. Consider what you enjoyed most or when you performed at your best, along with what you did not enjoy. Explore your network for career information. Reach out to those in positions that interest you; ask about their work history or place of employment. Research employers in areas that interest you. Learn which employers offer jobs related to your skills, interest, and abilities. Seek opportunities or volunteer in an area in which you have a career interest. You'll gain hands-on experience, increase your network, and strengthen your skills. For additional tips and resources, refer to: Setting Career Goals. |
