Plan Ahead to Achieve Your Career Goals

Making the Most of Your Summer Work Experience

While planning for the fall, leverage the remaining weeks of summer to maximize your current work experience:

1. Conduct Informational Interviews - Use this time to conduct informational interviews with colleagues or management at your current place of employment. Ask about their career paths, industry insights, and any advice they have. These conversations not only enhance your knowledge of your workplace but provide invaluable connections that can expand your network. 

2. Document Your Achievements - Keep track of projects, skills, and accomplishments from your summer work experience. This will help you update your resume and LinkedIn profile with specific examples of your work.

3. Seek Feedback -  Request feedback from supervisors and colleagues. Constructive feedback can help you improve and recognize your strengths and support your growth in current and future roles.

4. Update Your Work Search Documents -  Use this time to connect with your Work Experience Coordinator to update your resume and cover letter with all the skills and experiences gained over the summer. Book your Resume Review appointment today!
