169: Thanksgiving Break and the Job Search

CS Radio - The Official Podcast of University of Pennsylvania Career Services

Happy Thanksgiving break! The squad discusses how to use the downtime as a chance to get comfortable with how to use job boards. Plus, we discuss what to say to a family they may or may not be pressing you about your internship/job search. Don’t worry - you’re not too late! (unless you’re in finance, consulting, or tech - in that case you should be with an advisor ASAP: https://careerservices.upenn.edu/)

Additional topics include:

• Researching for interesting job titles
• Staying in touch and connecting with friends at home
• If you live in a city - local accessible networking
• Meet with Career Services - but have a purpose
