5 Key Skills Interviewers Look for in a Job Interview

Here are some career planning and job search tips to help you prepare for life after college:

1.Start Early

Do not wait until the last minute to start your job search. Begin researching potential career paths and companies while you are still in school. Attend career fairs and networking events and start building relationships with professionals in your field of interest. The more groundwork you lay before graduation, the easier your job search will be.

2.Develop Your Skills

Employers want to hire candidates who have the skills and experience necessary to excel in their roles. Consider taking on internships or part-time jobs in your field to gain real-world experience. Participate in extracurricular activities, volunteer work, or research opportunities that will help you develop skills that are relevant to your desired career path.

3.Polish Your Resume and Cover Letter

Your resume and cover letter are often the first impression you will make on potential employers. Make sure they are polished and professional. Work with Finstock’s career service department to get feedback on your resume and cover letter and make sure they are tailored to the specific job you are applying for.

4. Network, Network, Network

Networking is one of the most effective ways to find a job. Attend networking events and reach out to alumni in your field for advice and mentorship. Use social media to connect with professionals and companies that interest you.

5.Practice for Interviews

Interviewing can be nerve-wracking, but practice makes perfect. Use Finstock Evarsity career services department or online resources to practice your interviewing skills. Research the company and the role you are applying for beforehand and come prepared with questions to ask the interviewer.
