CAREER STUDIO CHATS
Dear MSF students,
We hope many of you participated in the various career workshops and events this Fall. We covered several topics such as resume writing, cover letter writing, LinkedIn, job writing etiquette, career fair preparation, and interview skills.
To wrap up the Fall semester, our office is hosting “Career Studio Chats” (a one-on-one casual chat with a career advisor focused on helping students develop specific career skills).
We launched this service on November 11th and it will continue until December 20th so we strongly encourage you to drop by to learn more! For students graduating this December, this is a great opportunity to take advantage of our services before you graduate!
