Hello Everyone,

This week we will be having a resume and interview workshop. Two student advisers from the ICC will be coming to inform us about resumes and interviewing and will answer any questions you have on the process. This is especially important since this Thursday, April 19th, the ICC is hosting its Spring Internship and Career Fair from 10-2pm at the ARC Pavilion. If you want to have a resume looked over, feel free to bring it in and ask them to review it after the presentation.
