Let's Get Started!

As a new year starts so do new traditions. Okay so maybe keeping a blog isn’t a tradition but it is something I have wanted to start for a while. This is the Career Services blog, it is going to be filled with funny stories from the office, up coming events and tips for etiquette and job hunting! I am so excited that for whoever actually reads this gets to go on this journey with me. So let’s get started.

Every week there will be at least one post about the happenings in the office by me or someone from the office. Plus I will introduce a new person each week, so when you come in you’ll know a familiar face.

This week’s Career Services employ being introduced is me! I am a freshman here at William Jewell College and I absolutely love it here. It is a great experience and I can’t wait for the rest of my college experience. I am a triple major here at Jewell, my majors are Business Administration, Organizational Communication and the ACT-IN major. So basically I am going to be a busy person. In life I hope to work in marketing or advertising. It just fits my personality so well and I am blessed to go to a school that offers great programs too. My hobbies are fishing, reading, and photography. I am in love with life and can’t get enough of it either! It is just so exciting and fun that I make the very best of every opportunity.

Here in the office I really just help out people who come in looking for help with a resume or job search, I'm still kinda learning the ropes but I am getting there. Career Services is here for you! To get to the office go to the second floor of the Union, go past the perch and turn right! You’ll see our door open so just walk right in and you’ll see a smiling face welcome you to our little office.

If you really want to keep up with all the happenings in the office join our Facebook groups and follow us on Twitter. We post a lot of information on the Facebook pages and quick stuff on the Twitter! (The links are located on the left side of the page!)

For whoever is reading this, just have a great weekend, stay safe and good luck job hunting!
