July 14, 2023 – Upcoming Events, Opportunities & Resources
From the advisor:
Hi Hoyas and a Happy 4th of July – albeit a bit belated. I hope the last few weeks have been full of hotdogs, watermelon, popsicles and other fun summer treats. I hope you are all continuing to have a wonderful summer break. If you haven’t already, please be sure to schedule in some time to get some good R&R as the school year will be here before you know it.
In the meantime, position descriptions for fall internships are starting to come in at a rapid clip. In this newsletter are but a small sampling of all the great opportunities out there. Be sure to regularly check your Handshake profile, update it with any new experiences, and ‘favorite’ employers you’re interested in. The more you interact with the platform, the more the algorithms on the back end can help pull opportunities that are more relevant to your specific interests.
If you need a quick check of a resume or cover letter, remember we have virtual drop-ins (new window) on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1-2pm ET. I do have a limited number of one on one appointments available through most of July before I head out for a vacation of my own.
