Hi, Cynthia Here!

As we all know, this semester is slowly but surely coming to an end. Whew! Thats one down one more to go! For me, the end of the semester means applying for jobs, because my bank account appears to be slowly running out and the number one demand of college kids? You got it: money!

This week, I have two interviews for different jobs on campus, and of course, they are both on the same day!! So that means I have a lot of preparing to do.

A couple common interview tips for any of you in the same situation as me:

• Greet the employer with a handshake
• Make frequent eye contact
• Be polite, Smile!
• If in doubt, bring a resume (better safe than sorry)
• Be upbeat and positive

A great recorce on campus that can also help you with interview tips is Career Services located in Southwick 200 on North Campus. They have drop-in resume makeovers if you’re not sure how to make a resume. Their schedule for November can be found HERE!

Career Services also offers advice about changing majors if you’re unhappy in your major. You can also go schedule a mock interview to help practice for your interview!

That’s it for me for now! I gotta get back to my resume!
