IEEE R2 Student Workshop “How to be selected for the job you want”

April 9, 2022 @ 09:30 - 11:30

Applying for positions can be intimidating and lead to more rejections than you thought possible. Likewise, you may interview for several positions and find you are settling for second or third choice. Hiring managers are flooded with resumes, many of which look alike. Our presenters will be discussing what they see when screening potential resumes and what makes one stand out as desirable. Remember, the purpose of a resume is to get an interview and the purpose of the interview is not always to get an offer. It should also be an evaluation of whether this is the right move to start your professional career. From the HR perspective, it is how to get past the first 30 seconds of scanning resumes. From the Hiring Manager, it is how to find the person you want from 100 other candidates. This should complement what College Placement Offices provide.
