Coming into Baruch I was under the impression that everything I would need to succeed in my future career would be in my classrooms. But on the contrary, I had realized that my classrooms would not give me one vital thing I would need. The skills too actually get the job. To fix what 
seemed some irrelevant at the time, my friends and I attended a Resume Workshop given by ALPFA. In this workshop I learned that three main things separate me from being able to get my prospected job and being unemployed. Those three things are: LinkedIN, a resume, and the elevator pitch.
The elevator pitch is basically sixty seconds in which you have to give your potential employer a quick summary of who you are and what you have done. In my mind it seemed easy but when we started practicing I had come to the realization that I was way in over my head. Then came the resume portion of the workshop. Again my ignorance seemed to prevail because yet again I believed it would be a walk through the park. As you can guess I was wrong. I realized some much information on my current resume could have been phrased differently or was unnecessary. Thankfully I had no idea what LinkedIN was so I listened attentively as they described how essentially it was social media for potential employers and employees without the carefree social aspect. Overall I would recommend that this workshop be attended.
