“Tell Me About Yourself.”
Does that sound familiar? Just about everyone I have spoken to tells me that’s their first interview question. At first I thought, there’s no way that’s true, or it was a weird coincidence. It won’t happen to me! Boy, was I wrong… I started paying more attention to my interviews and believe it or not […]
Feeling UnLucky?
St. Patty’s day is pretty soon but things just have not been perfect for many people. Believe me, I hear ya. Getting a job or an internship seems to be pretty much PLAN A for everyone but getting solid results has been the case for everyone. If you’re like me or anyone else looking for a […]
OOPS, I missed the career fair…
Does that headline sound like you or someone you know? A lot of my friends and just people in general missed the career fair or large chunks of the career fair because of random last minute things such as being sick or having lab work that took too long. If you’re in that boat and […]
More Campus Fun!
How did you spend your Tuesday? If you weren’t in the Campus Center on Tuesday there is no way you had as much fun as me. Tuesday this week was super cool!! WPI’s Phi Kappa Theata (KAP), Bonardi’s Formalwear (on Highland Street) and of course the Career Development Center got to put on a pretty […]
WANT TO BE FAMOUS!??
Hey WPI! Are you invovled on campus? Are you a student leader? Has your WPI experience been extremely marketable? Have you been able to use the Career Development Center’s resources to help market your experiences? Did you do a walk-in? Did you set up an appointment? Have you been to a workshop or the […]
Walk In, Yeah I Did That!
This term the Career Development Center is being extremely flexible. The walk-in hours are from 10:00 AM to 4:00PM, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays! That’s like a billion hours total ( I’m no pro at Math)! Walk ins are awesome for Resume Critiques, Cover Letter Critiques and much more. Make sure you have a hard copy […]
Breaktime? Kinda…not really…?
The first semester of this school year finally finished. Hopefully you enjoyed it. Try to have some fun this break but hey seriously, C term is gonna come fast and that means the Career fair is right around the corner too. ( Spring Career Fair is Feb 14th!) The great news is that with a […]
Winter Carnival Winners!
Did you win? Last Week, WPI’s Social Committee (SocComm) hosted an awesome event in Alden Hall just before the crazy rush of finals. This year’s theme was dreams. As a Peer Advisor, I jumped on the opportunity to have fun with things. I got to run the Career Development Center’s (CDC) table at the […]
How Do You Break a Chain? Break the Weakest Link!
Imagine not even having a chain? That’s what not having a LinkedIn account is sort of like. For a while I was pretty, stubborn and lazy when it came to creating a LinkedIn account. I had no idea that my network was slowly dying. I was really content with my stack of business cards but […]
Technical Interview Experience and Tips
I have had 3 technical interviews so far: One completely unexpected and in person, another over the phone and one last one on site. After each interview, I learned a little more about how to handle those sorts of things. Some of the information comes straight from the employers, some of it comes from my […]
