Which organizations are hiring? Do I meet their requirements? Will this be a good fit for me?
These are just a few of the questions students often ask as they consider full-time employment, internships, or assistantships. However, the number and types of questions often multiply for those students from abroad who are studying in the United States.
Career Services’ Cultural Career Network Program (CCNP) and International Student and Scholar Services will seek to address some of those concerns by hosting the International Student Career Series this spring. Each session provides Illinois State’s international students and alumni with career support to help them remain competitive and increase their confidence in the job market.
Series sessions
The International Student Career Series is held virtually and includes several sessions:
- GoinGlobal—Finding Organizations That Will File for You, January 30
- Strategies for Landing a Job in the U.S., February 13
- Resume and LinkedIn Reviews, February 15
- Alumni Share How to Get a Job, March 19
- Ace That Interview, March 29
- Immigration Clinic – Life After Optional Practical Training (OPT), April 12
Students may attend any session or the entire series.
The International Student Career Series is an example of Illinois State’s commitment to diversity and Career Services’ mission of assisting all Illinois State students with developing, evaluating, and implementing career decisions.
