Entry level it job pp
This document provides descriptions for several entry-level IT jobs, including technical and soft skills required as well as typical salaries. Jobs discussed include campaign strategist, UX designer, data scientist, information security specialist, software engineer, database analyst, computer network defense analyst, project management specialist, and computer network defense analyst. For each role, technical skills, soft skills, and average salary are listed. The value of the assignment is discussed at the end, noting the learning experience of identifying skills across different job descriptions and understanding how databases are organized.
Plugging the Skills Gap
The document discusses skills shortages in various industries and job functions based on a survey of 248 executives. It finds that executives are most concerned about shortages of technical/engineering staff, with over 60% finding it challenging to hire these skills. Shortages in strategic/corporate development roles are also a concern. While skills gaps exist, the situation is more nuanced than often portrayed, with only 5-8% finding it very difficult to hire for most other functions. Companies are addressing skills shortages through training programs. However, many candidates still lack soft skills like creativity and communication abilities. The perception of shortages varies between regions, with less pessimism in Western Europe than North America due to differences in economic growth forecasts.
Dont Be A Noob
This document discusses how to avoid being a "noob" or inexperienced person at a new job. It defines a noob as a newcomer who is inexperienced and may talk or act inappropriately due to lack of knowledge. The document recommends finding a mentor, paying attention to details, listening more than talking, always being truthful, and avoiding dumb mistakes. The conclusion is that to avoid being a noob, newcomers should listen and learn rather than talk excessively due to their inexperience.

DeVry University Career Advisory Board: What the Most Successful Job Seekers ...
In the interest of providing actionable advice to job seekers, the Career Advisory Board set out to discover what candidates who are perceived as the “complete package” are doing in order to secure a desirable job offer. In our Successful Job Seekers research, we surveyed over 550 professionals of varying ages and in different roles and industries. Our respondents had one thing in common: they were either recruited by a desirable company and received an offer without having to search for a new job at all (referred to as passive job seekers), or they received an interview for a job they ultimately accepted less than six months after starting a search (referred to as active job seekers).
The following report summary highlights the results of the research, including that the most effective candidates target, customize, and are organized and realistic about their opportunities. Now that we’ve learned from the best, we aim to educate the general job seeking population on improving job search efficiency and outcomes.
