Important Tips
- Prepare a 30 second elevator speech.
- Imagine you are in an elevator with a potential supervisor, and they ask you to tell them about yourself. What would they like to know?
- When you go up to the employer tables, you can introduce yourself, hand them your resume, express your interest, summarize your qualifications, emphasizing what is unique about you, and explain why you are interested in the position(s). This can be a good way to start a conversation with the employers.
- Think about what types of jobs you might want to look for.
- If you are not sure about your career path, there is an assessment you can do at MyNextMove.org to narrow down career options based on your answers.
