You will participate in group discussions, exercises, and projects that will help you determine which sectors and occupations best match your interests and aptitudes. You will also learn what coursework and additional credentials might enhance the likelihood of obtaining the type of position you want. You will develop an application-ready resume and will be well prepared for networking and professional interviews. Upon successful completion of this course you will possess the ability to communicate effectively and professionally and to employ different strategies to search for internship and career opportunities.
