I feel that this week was the week that most inspired me. We
did many things that I will be applying through my whole college and job
career. The two things that were most inspiring to me were learning about
resumes and job interviews. This is something that I have always wanted to work
on, but never really knew where to start. The last resume I had made was in high
school and my last job interview was when I was a junior in high school. Before,
I only had a very basic knowledge of how to create a professional resume and
present myself in a professional way. I was amazed at the resume I was able to
create with the instruction we received in class and in the book.
What I most enjoyed during the week was doing mock
interviews. I felt as if I were able to speak well and clear. However, at the
same time, I was able to receive some great feedback of things that I can do
better. I will be sure to remember what I learned and apply it when I have to
do a real interview.
I was very excited to work on resumes. I was amazed at how much I had done and yet horrified at how little. It is crazy to think about how much it will have on it some day.
ReplyDeleteI agree with this too! Resumes and interviews make me want to run away. But this class has taught them well that they don't seem as intimidating anymore.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the mock interviews too! I found it especially helpful because we were able to get feedback right after we were finished. I think the more we practice the skills, the better. I'm glad our class gives us the opportunity to!
