宾州州立大学阿宾顿分校 Career and Professional Development staff schedule one-on-one appointments and present workshops throughout the semester to prepare students for interviews and the annual fall and spring career fairs.
阿宾顿,爸爸. — 宾州州立大学阿宾顿分校 students seeking internships or full-time positions should attend the campus’s 春季招聘会 on Wednesday, March 1, in the Athletic Building. Recruiters will speak to students from 10:30 a.m. 至下午1:30.m.
Here are some tips from the campus’s Career and Professional Development staff to help students switch into professional mode:
-
Students can polish their resumes with these tips from Penn State Career Services 或者查看 Penn State Career Guide.
-
研究 雇主名单 谁将出席?.
-
Develop and practice a brief introduction or elevator pitch. This brief synopsis of skills and qualifications should be no more than one minute. The student should give some top-level bullet points about what makes them a good fit for the company, including their field of study and relevant experience. They should practice in front of a mirror, or with a loved one or friend, and ask for feedback.
-
Business professional attire is required. Students need to make a good first impression in clothing that boosts their confidence. Wear clothing that is polished, clean, and wrinkle-free. If in doubt, choose something more professional than casual.
In the run-up to the career fair each semester, CPD organizes events to allow students in their first through senior years to develop skills to succeed in the professional world. 工作一周, which is held just prior to the fair, immerses students in resume reviews and networking practice. They can also receive free professional attire through the 职业生涯衣橱.
Harshvardhan高尔, 一个初级, retooled his resume with support from CPD staff before last fall’s career fair.
“I went to the Resumania workshop, and they told me how to correct my resume. 现在感觉很完美. Some of the employers told me my resume was really good,” he said.
蒂娜Vance-Knight, CPD director, is always ready to offer advice and answer questions from students
“Career development is about preparation, and when met with a little luck, 你找到了成功,奈特说.
