A Word of Advice - Develop Your Career Over Winter Break
Winter break is almost here! This is a time to relax and spend time with friends and family; however, it can also be a great time to develop your career! Here are just some of the ways you can do so over the break.
A great way you can work on developing your career readiness is either creating or updating your LinkedIn. LinkedIn is far more than just a social media website. It is a fantastic tool you can use to connect with others who are working in the fields that interest you. If you visit LinkedIn.com/alumni you can filter through William & Mary alumni to see if there are any you would like to connect with! Check out our #QuestionswithCohen video where Kelly tells just how you can use this function of LinkedIn.
Another great thing you can do over break is refreshing your resume! Having a strong resume ready is crucial for when you start applying for summer internships and jobs. Visit this link to learn more about developing your resume.
If you have any questions make sure to schedule an appointment at the Career Center before the semester is over. We're open through Thursday, December 20!
