School and Careers
We’re knee deep in the snow, clenching our fists at professors who’ve given us difficult midterms, and we’re waiting for the employers to come and save us. For some of us this has become a routine that we regretfully can’t really get out of. We go to school to get a job, that’s a fact […]
How to find an Internship this Holiday Season!
Since it’s thanksgiving I thought I’d talk about how thankful I am for one of the best things about WPI, the CDC. Yes I work for the CDC, and yes I get paid for my work there, but that doesn’t change the fact that we have one of the best career centers in the nation. […]
Here we go!
We’re a week into B-term, leaves are leaving us behind and we’re all bracing ourselves for a cold winter. Nearly everyone I’ve spoken to complains about how B-term will be worse than A-term, and they’d be ecstatic if B-term ends up just as bad as A-term. I can talk about expectations for hours, but […]
The Right Job!
Hi Everyone, We’re in the middle of another week, we have almost two weeks left, and my break is over. I did so little work last week I don’t think I count as a WPI student anymore. It was great, all I had to do was focus on school and work, and didn’t think about […]
Don’t Go Online Yet! Go To Information Sessions.

IT’S OVER!!
Hello Everyone, Career Fair is Over! Midterms are Over! Now we can get back on track with our lives, we’re done. Not so fast… Unfortunately tests will never be over, and job searches are just beginning. First, remember to send out thank you notes to everyone you met during the career fair, if you need […]
Your Presentation: Simplify It.
“I just don’t know what to say to the employers!” “I get nervous. I stumble.” “Do you think that this margin on my resume should be smaller so I can fit that leadership position from a year ago?” The number of times that I’ve consoled people over these worries means that students aren’t comfortable presenting […]
