Which organizations are hiring? Do I meet their requirements? How do I create a resume or LinkedIn profile showcasing my experiences?
These are just a few 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 the Office of International Engagement will address some of those concerns by hosting the International Student Career Series. 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 includes several sessions:
- Resume and LinkedIn Reviews, August 12
- Strategies for Landing a Job in the U.S., September 3
- GoinGlobal, September 17
- Job Search Advice from Alumni, October 22
- Immigration Clinic–Life After Optional Practical Training (OPT), November 19
The International Student Career Series is an example of Illinois State’s commitment to diversity and Career Services’ mission to empower and support Redbirds to achieve their professional goals by providing resources, experiences, and industry connections.
