LIfetime Rec- Week 13

Think about all you have been learning on this job.  In preparation for our field trip to the Career Center, discuss what you have learned on the job and how you could sell your qualities and skills to a future employer.  What will you include on your resume about this position to sell yourself for a job after college.  

After you write your description, find some article, video, or other electronic tidbit to illustrate one of the things you have learned from being on this job.

 Working as a Program Assistant, I have been exposed to many different new experiences. I think that one of the most important qualities that I have been improving on is communication. I feel that this is something that future employers are looking for because they need someone who is willing to interact and socialize with different people and then try to discuss what is happening in the workplace(or on the Res hall floor.) Something else that I can take away from being a program assistant, is the ability to work independently, work one on one, and work in a group. These three things are crucial because it shows the employer that you are willing to work by yourself and also you are willing to work in groups when needed. Without these few qualifications, it is harder for the employer to trust the person that they are hiring so that is why it is a great thing to start early and make mistakes to learn what you need to improve on for the long run. :)
