available in Career Services.

School Fair in October
- Non-Profit

All Fairs are from 11:30am-3:00pm in the

I will network with different organizations
and hand them my resume. This will help me gain skills in presenting myself as
a professional
I am keeping my "resume file" up to date
with activities, projects, and committees.
I have talked to at least two professionals from my area of
interest in an "informational interview."
I have read at least one book on career planning (such as
What Color Is Your Parachute?).

the resources available to me in the Career Services Resource Library
in 306
I have increased my skills by being
involved in student organizations.
I have updated my resume & profile

I have appropriate
interview attire for next year. I found doing this over my summer vacation was
good time management.

registered to take the appropriate graduate school exam and met with a career
counselor to review my application materials for graduate school.
