Summer is here..what should I do?

So this will be my last post until next fall...so I thought that I would leave you with some tips on how to fill your homework less (is that a word? oh well!) days.

I would first recommend continuing to use all of the programs (Ask an Alum, Sigi 3, the Career Services Website, etc.) that I have listed in my previous posts.

Second, I would recommend volunteering or getting a job that pertains to one of your interests. Though you may be undeclared, it doesn't hurt to do an activity that you enjoy. You will be building your resume and gaining experience. Who knows, maybe you will discover what you want to major in!

Third, I would recommend making an effort to network and talk to others about their careers and college experiences. The summer months are filled picnics, grad parties, and family vacations-the perfect place to make yourself known. You will be surprised to find how many people want to share their career with you. It might even give you some ideas of your own. A future internship may even become available.

But, most of all, enjoy the summer!!!! Let the career searching begin!
