Please
join us for a special workshop run by the Office of Career Services that is
focused on how to best apply the skills gained through your study abroad
experience when applying for a job or graduate school admission. We
will advise the best way to list your overseas experience on your resume,
identify some of the skills that you may have obtained, and then provide
feedback on how to incorporate those skills in response to common interview
questions. Some sample interview questions we will discuss:
1.
How
has your college experience prepared you for your career?
2.
Give
me an example of a problem you’ve encountered and explain how you handled it?
3. Describe
a situation where you felt you had not communicated well. How did you correct
the situation?
We consider this workshop the next
phase of your study abroad package, and an essential part of the overall
experience.
