Career Resources

During my last semester of my junior year, I came across the event called the CLAS Career Readiness Boot Camp. This is when I met Bessie Nolan, Career Specialist and CLAS Liaison and host of this event. With the help of this event, I went from sweating over interviews to knocking it out park and landing my job as behavior specialist within four months! I cannot imagine the opportunities that I would have missed if I did not attend that event. After attending, I increased my self-efficacy, started to take out the term “imposter syndrome” in my personal directory, along with realizing my worth in the behavioral health field.

In the midst of my pandemic spring break last year, I decided to apply for the pilot year of the Career Readiness Boot Camp provided by the university. During this week-long program, I was fully immersed in an educational journey of learning how to advocate for myself as a student and as an employee, build a resume and cover letter, network, and most importantly, give thanks. Bessie has been a tremendous part of this process and I truly would not be where I am today if I hadn’t met and connected with her through the Career Hub program. Thank you, Bessie!
