For the career workshop, I decided to attend a Starr Career Development Center Workshop on Thursday during club hours with my friends. The workshop focuses on job searching techniques and skills. The workshop included a detailed and informative PowerPoint presentation with numerous slides on different job searching skills. The workshop staff, Michael, presented many new important information. I learned a lot more about acquiring an internship, writing my resume, going to job interviews, and the proper ways to behave in a professional work environment. Michael also taught us how to use the Baruch Starr Search website as well as other job search engines such as Indeed, LinkedIn, and Idealist including his personal opinions and preferences. Prior to the workshop, I did not know how to use the Starr Search website provided to us. But during the workshop, Michael walked us through the website and pointing out important features. I learned that you can look for internships on the website according to your major or interest and you can also filter out the jobs that you are not interested in. On Starr Search, you can edit your profile for employers to look at. Michael showed us an example of a graduate’s profile in which you can include your GPA and major in your profile. In addition, I learned about resume skills that you should always only include key qualities and keep your resume to be only one page long. Michael also went over the major skills that employers want. He provided an in-depth explanation on each of the skills. The skills include leadership, problem solving, results orientation, collaboration, and communication. Not only did Michael explained each one of these skills, he also explained how to showcase each of them to your potential employer rather than just including them in your resume. Towards the end of the workshop, we were given a packet with pages of checklists and mock interview questions in which it will help me prepare for future job search and interviews.
