My role at UCSD |
|
As a
Graduate Intern, I work with students on a variety of
career-related topics, such as career advising and
exploration, reviewing resumes and cover letters, career
workshops, providing career resources, demonstrating
different strategies on finding jobs and internships, and
effective interviewing techniques. |
|
My career path |
|
I am
currently a graduate student as the University of San Diego
working toward my M.A. in Counseling. Prior to graduate
school I worked for headhunters in New York City and decided
that attending graduate school was the next step I needed to
take in order to pursue a career in counseling. After a
long and thoughtful process I decided that I wanted to
launch my career in the direction of helping people with
their career decision-making, transitional, and
developmental concerns. |
|
The rewards in doing what I do |
|
It brings
me great satisfaction knowing that I helped a student
identify their career values, abilities and talents,
interests, and passions, and that a career is selected based
on that self-identifying information. |
|
My words of wisdom to students |
|
During
the process of selecting a major or career, assess what
brings you the most satisfaction and excites you. Another
approach is to think about how you can combine your natural
talents, passions, and values to create your own career. |
|
When I'm not on campus... |
|
You can
find me sunbathing at my favorite coffee shops, riding my
bike, discovering new restaurants in San Diego, or simply
hanging out with friends. |
