When looking for a job or internship, you want to showcase your most relevant skills that will emphasize to an employer why you are a good candidate for the role. Sometimes, you’ll need to develop new skills to differentiate yourself as a top candidate. The first step to do so is to take an inventory of what areas need further development to be successful in your desired career, and make a plan to acquire these new skills. This may mean taking a course, joining a club, working on a special project, taking a training, or obtaining a micro-credential. Skill development and maintenance is an ongoing practice in a successful career. Schedule an appointment with your Career Coach to develop and discuss your skill development plan. |
