The Career Development 101 seminar taught me effective strategies in networking with others in order to obtain a position. I didn't realize how important networking was for many people in the job searching process. I also realized that I should probably be updating my resume more frequently, as well as keep a spreadsheet of my activities and hours so that nothing is left out. The workshop was very helpful in exposing us to resources (such as The Career Center and free business cards), which I didn't know about previously.
The workshop Writing Academic Articles and Getting Published was very helpful. I have no experience writing or publishing scientific articles, though hope to eventually do so. The speaker's personal experiences, though in a different field, were very helpful in understanding the process. While I might not start writing articles for a while, I will probably start journaling about my research in order to practice. I also agree that the Sweetland Writing Center is a great resource for writing assignments.
