Career Kickstart Workshop
Why Great Students Get Filtered Out of Jobs They Qualify For
A live, 90-minute workshop highlighting what recruiters look for across resumes, LinkedIn, and networking outreach so you start getting interviews.
This Session Is For You If:
- •You've been sending applications and getting silence
- •You know your resume isn't great, but you don't know how to fix it
- •LinkedIn feels like a chore, not a tool that works for you
- •You want to reach out to alumni and network, but don't know how to start
- •Interviews make you nervous because you don't have a clear story ready
Why Most Students Struggle to Land an Internship
Most students treat the job search like a numbers game — send enough applications and eventually something sticks. It doesn't work that way.
The difference between students who land internships and those who keep waiting is rarely effort. It's almost always strategy. Most students are never shown how recruiters actually evaluate candidates or what makes one resume stand out over another. This workshop fixes that.
