making
a decision and committing to an internship or job opportunity is
hard. How can you be sure the offer is the best one for you? How
can you convey an interest in the position and ask for more
time? How do you balance multiple interview processes and offer
deadlines that do no align? In this session we will cover: -
Recruiting expectations for students and employers. - How to
effectively communicate with employers if you have questions or
need more time to make a decision. - Evaluating offers and the
decision making process. - Making a commitment and what it
expected. Participants are encouraged to send their specific
questions in advance to Tamara Menghi at <a
