assess yourself and how your likes, dislikes, values and interests
might fit into the majors you are considering. This workshop will take
you through the basics- Who should you talk to get the information you
need? What resources are available to help you? Attendees will
participate in two assessment exercises and will bring the information
together to evaluate major options.<br>

<blockquote type="cite" cite><b>Self Assessment for Graduate
Students, </b> Thursday, March 18, 2010 4:00p-5:30p,
Room 4-145</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>Graduate students at all stages can
benefit from self-assessment. In order to make good career decisions
it's important to have a clear understanding of your own internal
priorities. Learn about a framework to help you think about your
career options, values, interests, and transferable skills - which
graduate students possess in abundance but may not always recognize.
This interactive workshop includes exercises to help you explore some
elements within yourself that can shed light on career choices.
Registration for this workshop is required, and limited to 20
students.<br>

<blockquote type="cite" cite>Did you know that 83% of employers use
the internet to find information about potential employees? Are you on
Facebook but not on Linkedin? Discover how to create your own personal
brand using social media instead of just aimlessly applying for jobs.
In this workshop we will focus on the do's and don'ts when using
Linkedin and tips to build valuable connections. In addition, you will
leave this workshop with the knowledge of how to diagnose, manage and
monitor your web presence while developing connections with people who
can make your professional goals a reality. Learn how to establish a
strong web presence that will impress employers, colleagues and
industry leaders.</blockquote>
