In previous posts, we’ve talked about internship basics. Now, let’s begin applying for internship opportunities. This week: Let’s call this list of sites our Round One internships. Guest Author: CareerAlley  Journey “Life is a journey, not a destination – we determine our destiny by the direction we take.” – Anonymous Do you remember “do overs”? You know, when you are playing a game or sport, make a mistake and ask to do it all over again (like don’t count the bad turn)? Sometimes you need to do the same with your job search, kind of “do over”. Maybe you are not getting the result you expect or sometimes you just need to “start fresh”. Whatever the reason and how deep your “do over” is depends on you. Today’s post starts with a fresh look at recruiters, one of the “four legs of job search“. Guest Author: CareerAlley
When I was growing up, my family did not go on any vacations that required an airplane. Typically, the four of us (Mom, Dad, Sister and me) would go on a vacation that meant we were getting into the car and driving for (what felt like) eternity. Our car, which did not have air conditioning, certainly did not have a DVD player to keep my sister and I occupied. How ever long it took, we did finally get to our destination and we had a great vacation. We did not miss the DVD (there was no such thing) and, you know what they say, ignorance is bliss. Guest Author: Jessica has a true passion for the job seeker, evidenced by her desire to share everything she can with everyone she can about resume writing and interviewing. When I was in college, one of my classes featured a section on the family dynamics of different ethnicities found throughout the U.S. Having grown up in an area full of socioeconomic and racial diversity, I found the textbook discussions of how certain types of families operated stereotypical and of little value. My professor had sensed my annoyance with the topic; and after class one day, she asked me about it. She told me that it was necessary to teach the material, because many students at my school had never been exposed to much cultural diversity. |
