Career Services Write Up

For my Career Services blog post, I decided to "attend" a webinar.  It was on "How to Find a Job Using Sun Devil CareerLink."  Crazy thing, the Host never showed up!  So, one of the students attending called up his teacher and she was able to host the event.  

It was very interesting!  I was so surprised to see all the opportunities that are provided to us ASU students!  The CareerLink website is so user-friendly, I think my kids could find an opportunity if they really wanted to.  (I think I may task them on that!  It could be a fun way to see their interests!) It's cool because you can pick and choose how far away from your, school or wherever you decide.  There are out of state opportunities as well.  


So what you do is:

  • Go to this website: https://eoss.asu.edu/cs/sdcl 
  • Create a log in
  • From here you can really decide how deep to get into it - there's a place you can upload your resume, store a cover letter, look for jobs, apply for jobs, keep track of where you have applied, "favorite" jobs, and so so so so much more.  It's really cool!
I was really excited to learn about all these things and the attendees and I were able to chit-chat about some of the things that we learned.  I know it will be a tool that I will use in the future, FOR SURE!

P.S.  I'm excited...I just finished RSVP-ing for the 'Idealist Grad Fair'!!  That will be something I will be looking forward to.  If you are serious about moving forward in school and getting a Masters (or beyond) in the Social/Public Sector, this is going to be very informative!  http://www.idealist.org/view/fair/SfhxgDwGxMJd/view
