Where Can My Degree Take Me? - Tuesday, October 19 at 4:30 - 6:00 PM

If you’re not sure what you’re going to do with your degree, you’re not alone. We’re not taught from an early age how to answer those big life questions like “What should I do with my life?”. Add a pandemic into the mix, and the future can feel very…foggy.

  • Identify industries, organizations and career options that are a good fit
  • Establish your career direction and next steps to take
  • Enhance your ability to find jobs in areas you most want to pursue

----------

Job Search During COVID - Tuesday, October 26 at 4:30 - 6:00 PM

Don’t lose hope for your work search during the pandemic! Job opportunities are still out there – and we can help you land them. From finding more opportunities to leveraging LinkedIn, this workshop will provide you with practical ideas to help you stand out.

  • Discover tips and tricks that most students miss in their job search strategy
  • Learn how to get your resume past Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to a real human
  • Enhance your ability to network without feeling intimidated, and land more interviews
