The Art of Behavioral Interviewing
Tuesday, October 6th, 2:00 - 3:30pm, 36-156
While your technical skills will get you the interview, it is your behavioral attributes that will get you the job.  This session will discuss preparation and strategies for a successful interview.  In addition, sample behavioral interview questions will be provided along with tips on how to answer these tough questions. All GECD events are open to MIT undergraduates, graduate students, postdocs, and alumni. Advanced registration requested via CareerBridge<https://www.myinterfase.com/mit/student>

Does Your Resume Communicate the Right Message?
Wednesday, Wednesday 7th, 3:00 - 4:30pm, 4-153
This workshop presented by Bob Dolan will discuss the many ways of creating a resume that effectively targets the Hiring Manager. Can your resume survive a 15 second scan and still get into the YES pile? Discussions will surround the strategies of effective messaging and how to be "on-point" with your written communication. Your resume is not an autobiography, but rather a list of relevant accomplishments that links your skills to the needs of the company. You’ll use these techniques in your lifelong career strategies. All GECD events are open to MIT undergraduates, graduate students, postdocs, and alumni. Advanced registration requested via CareerBridge<https://www.myinterfase.com/mit/student>

Networking 101
Thursday, October 8th, 5:30-7:00pm, 4-153
Building relationships through networking with fellow students, alumni and professionals is one of the most effective ways to uncover employment opportunities. However, contrary to popular opinion, there is a right way and wrong way to network. This workshop introduces you to resources you’ll need to research companies and discuss strategies on how to effectively network using resources both at MIT and beyond. We will examine effective tactics for networking, including the use of social media and the MIT ICAN Alumni Directory. All GECD events are open to MIT undergraduates, graduate students, postdocs, and alumni. Advanced registration requested via CareerBridge<https://www.myinterfase.com/mit/student>
