On October 19, I went to a Starr Career Development Center fair for Freshmen and Sophomores. This workshop is a way to help first and second-year students understand the recruiting process for most internships and jobs. It gave information on ways to get into early ID, pipeline, and leadership programs, many of which will lead to internships. They also gave a fifteen-minute conversation on recruiting events, networking events and the recruiting process, and an introductory resume advice.
I also received few brochures and pamphlets on career programs for first and second-year students. One of them is Peers for Careers Program, which is within T.E.A.M Baruch and was the first special program within the STARR Career Development Center. This program helps college students, staff, and alumni with career planning and exploration, resume writing, job search, interviewing, cover letters, and much more. This seems like a program I would join and most definitely benefit from. This program will give me valuable skills to land a successful internship with my intended major.
