Resume Building

5/1/2018

0 Comments

 
Our focus this week was working on job applications. First, we held a workshop with the students to build/improve their resumes. This was difficult as many of our students struggled to communicate their previous job experiences. One of the students was not very verbal but was creative enough to show us his workplace through Google Maps (sponsor us), as well as where he went to school and answer other information about his job history. This activity was incredibly important and beneficial since many of the students didn't have resumes or had outdated ones. The teachers collected the work we did and plan to use it when the students apply to jobs in the future - fingers crossed! We did a brief job exploration activity in which the students learned how to use indeed.com (sponsor us), and search for jobs. To finish up, we had a quick networking activity in which we practiced shaking hands, making eye contact, introducing ourselves, and making small talk.
