Spring has arrived which
means there are lots of events to prepare for! Each event is unique
and requires some preparation. This semester we have a variety of events
that include a wide range of majors, law school and grad school prep!
Listed below are the events and
times, if you have any questions about the event or location, feel free to
visit the Career Services website or call at
512-245-2645.
Tips for
Success!
-Bring revised
copies of your resume and business cards if you have them to employer information sessions.
-Come early, stay late! We suggest arriving 5-10 minutes early so you
can get a good seat and even introduce yourself to the speaker. When you
stay late you can be the last impression the presenter has in their head which
can be to your advantage!
-Brainstorm questions you want to ask at these events to either the
presenter or employer. There is nothing worse than forgetting what you
planned all week to ask!
-Start attending events before your senior year to be prepared for life after graduation.
-Have fun and be yourself!
