Workshop

Posted by minkyu.jeong in Workshop #3

I went to the workshop called “Writing Winning Resumes”. As name tells it, it was about writing good resume . Career adviser and assistant spent about one hour to tell student about basic guideline for resume. They said that people should include honors, awards, job history, foreign language, education and all the basic stuffs that indicate their worthiness. They also said that people should not include GPA unless it is above 3.0, I think it basically means that people with below 3.0 GPA will have a hard time with getting a decent job.

The workshop was overall so-so. In all honesty, I planned to finish assignments for classes, but I could not do it because the room for the workshop was too small. I paid attention at first, but I got extremely tired because of previous classes, so I did not paid attention that much in the end. Adviser asked people to form a group to answer some questions, I really hated that because I just wanted to sit and listen. Many people left before the workshop ended and some of the people left right after they signed on computer. I also wanted to leave, but I did not want to be rude, so I stayed. One thing that I really disliked about the workshop was it’s environment, many instructor or staffs (I think) continuously came in and left to get something, it was really annoying and prevented me from paying attention.
