Since the deadline for the third blog is close, my friends and I decided to attend a workshop to complete the career part. We went to the Dining Etiquette Workshop and found out that formal dressing was required. So, we couldn’t get it there and had to look for something else. We went to the starr office to get more information on the workshops.
On Thursday, November 2nd, I attended the Writing Winning Resumes workshop during club hours. The experience was funny because the lecturer was late for over half an hour. However, she did a great job on the lecture and I learned a lot of techniques on writing an effective resume. The most useful part for me was the bullet points part. I now know what I should put for the bullet points to make my resume a concise and impactful one. I gathered plenty of valuable information there.
Throughout the entire experience, the one thing that really benefited me the most was not the workshop itself, but the process of finding out what kind of career support Baruch provides. Baruch does have strong resources for its students. Workshops are scheduled on multiple days of a week at different time period. Staffs are there to help you with resumes and cover letters. What you can get will be a lifelong benefit. Thus, it’s a very significant to find out how one can get the most out of it.
