Building on knowledge from ‘Introduction to Green Careers’, students will continue to find their niche in the Natural Environment. By revisiting their skills-based resume and cover letter, students will learn to recognize the dynamic nature of these documents and begin updates. Students will learn about and practice interview skills, preparing for in-person, online and phone interviews. Strategies including an ‘elevator pitch’, and mock interviews, help to build confidence and communication. Students will learn the value of networking, and begin to build their network profile through Linked-In. The co-op job search will continue by learning the importance of following up with contacts, continually searching, and staying resilient.
