CAREER SERVICES IS HERE TO HELP!

Cherish Liles –Writer 

With summer approaching, many students are looking forward to spending time with friends, traveling, and for the vast majority, working. The issue arises when students can’t find jobs! Fortunately, the wonderful people in Career Services (located in SBC Suite 230) are here to help!

The workforce is very competitive, and one would be surprised on the little things that can determine whether or not you get the job.

Advisors in Career Services prepare students for a great interview. They provide interviewing tips, what to wear and what not to wear, and critique your résumé, in order to make you stand out above all other applicants.

All students should have résumés! Yes, it’s true that many of us have never worked in a professional workplace, but it is still important to be able to represent yourself on paper.

When filling out job or internship applications, many will ask for you to provide a résumé. Career Services can help you create the résumé that you need, even if you have little or no work experience. Mock interviews can also be scheduled!

The advisor of your classification (Freshmen: Ms. Devyn Sturdavant, Sophomore: Mr. Mose Harris, Junior: Ms. LaTasha Williams, Senior: Ms. Tamara Taylor) will help you improve your interviewing skills. Career Services even has a ‘clothes closet’ available, where you can pick out an outfit to wear to your interview. Take advantage of the great programs that we have available on campus and take the time to visit the Career Services office! 910-672-1205
