LinkedIn and Handshake profiles are as essential as the resume when job searching. Recruiters use the platforms to search for applicants or learn more about “who you are” after reviewing your resume. The platforms are also tools for networking. This workshop highlights the important sections for job seekers, how to effectively use keywords to promote being found by recruiters, and basic strategies for networking on the platform. Want to learn more about networking and personal branding? Check out our workshops on those topics as well.

Noon–1 p.m.

A basic premise of the interview is that past performance is a good predictor of future performance. Learn how to prepare for a behavioral interview, tell STAR stories, dos and don’ts during the interview, and follow-up post-interview.
