Career Preparation

This course walks students through tailoring resumes, tailoring cover letters, tailoring portfolios, and conducting a mock interview for a specific, desired employment opportunity. It allows A.I. to take on the role of the hiring manager to evaluate each of the materials and assess candidate performance. If enabled, students can use A.I. to create tailored application materials. If candidates are not clear on the specifics of their career plans, they are encouraged to take the career & financial planning course first.

This course is free until January 1, 2025
