>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

>Self Assessment for Graduate Students, Thursday, March 18,
>2010 4:00p-5:30p, Room 4-145

>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
