</span></b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Communication goes beyond verbal skills which are important to the success of any job seeker. To Brand yourself as a professional, you must deliver a consistent message in a written,
verbal, and virtual manner. As students and postdocs begin to look for positions in engineering and science, both in academia and industry, they must be aware of how their nonverbal communication skills impact their possibility of finding employment opportunities.
Learning how to maximize the use of one's verbal and nonverbal communication skills is a powerful tool to help one achieve professional success, and a critical component for the future. CAPD session.
