FIVE TIPS TO BEING A MARKETABLE STUDENT IN VIRTUAL RECRUITING
Happy Autumn Quarter to our CIV E & ENV E students and alumni!
You’ve survived the virtual career fair (YAY!), BUT, did you know that employers are assessing you as candidates without you even knowing?
Here are the “Career Center @ Engineering’s” (CC@E’s) tips for staying relevant, whether you’re looking for internships or full-time roles:
- Follow this 10-day Handshake profile challenge (courtesy of Handshake) before the Winter recruiting season; a complete profile makes you 5x more likely to be messaged
- Know your “personal brand” and create an “elevator pitch” (courtesy of Fast Company)
- Quickly talk through the application/interview process or a revised cover letter & resume via a 15-minute in-person “express” appointment (currently available next-day)
- Emailing your cover letter & resume to engrhire@uw.edu (current turnaround is two business days)
- Schedule a 30-minute Zoom consultation with CC@E to discuss your “personal brand” or participate in a mock interview (currently available one week out)
If you have any questions, stop by Loew 301 or email us (engrhire@uw.edu).
