Editor's Notes
- This hands on workshop will enable you to register for Aztec Career Connection and get an overview of the resources it offers.
- First, ask students: why students come to Career Services: than show the answers.
- Invite students to return to career services to meet with a Career Counselor, complete a Career Assessment, explore careers and employers, get a resume critique, conduct practice interviews, attend employer information sessions, attend other workshops offered.
- Self-assessment is a process by which you learn more about yourself: what you like, what you don't like, and how you tend to react to certain situations. Knowing these things can help you determine which occupations and work situations could be a better fit for you. Career planning assessments help you select one or more career paths to explore by matching your interests, skills, and work values to occupations.
- Note: This example needs to be updated. Point out and demonstrate features.
- Demonstrate pulling up job listings and information included in the listings.
