Workshop Reflection

I found that the Career Development 101 was quite helpful to me because it reminded me of the many resources that the university has to offer. For instance the Sweetland Writing Center that will help you go over your resume, they also help with papers and how to improve them. As well as the Alumni Center which gives you free business cards! I mean if you meet someone that would possibly have a job that you want, what better way for them to remember you by then your own personal business card?! Business cards are a good way to network as well, being that most people get great jobs based on how well they network. 
Also we talked about how to build a stronger resume. By tweaking a few things such as reading the job description and using that to make a better resume. Of all the workshops that we have had, and ones that I have gone to during the previous year, this is one of the most important ones.  If I were to change anything about the this presentation it would be to have someone from the Alumni center tell us about the other resources that they have.
