LinkedIn Profile
A LinkedIn profile is a great way for you to let people know who you are, what you stand for, and what you're interested in. Your profile helps you connect with opportunities by showcasing your professional story through experience, skills, and education.
Mock Interviews
Scheduling a mock interview is an excellent way to develop and enhance interviewing skills. It gives students the opportunity to think through what questions they're going to be asked and how to articulate their thoughts. It's a dress rehearsal where they get to practice in an environment and receive valuable feedback before the real job interview.
If you are a student looking for an opportunity to experience a job interview in a safe and constructive space before you start your career, we're here to help.
