How the heck do you gain experience related to your degree if you don’t have a job?
For a lot of us, we might be up to our eyeballs in schoolwork, or we’re taking care of family members, or maybe we’re already working just to pay for life—we might not be in the position to take part in co-op or pursue a job in our area of study.
In this episode, Katy and Emma chat with some of UVic’s career educators and community-engaged learning coordinators to talk about:
- What to do if you’re approaching graduation and need work experience
- How to get experience through your courses
- Specific suggestions for different program areas like science and fine arts
