“Would You Hire Me?” Real Talk on Professional Interactions
Think you know how to impress an employer? Let’s put it to the test. In this interactive session, you’ll watch a series of short video clips showing students in action- at career fairs, interviews, networking events, emails to supervisors, and even casual chats with coworkers. Some moments will be spot-on… and others not so much.
You’ll vote and discuss as a group: What worked? What went wrong? What would you do differently? Then, we’ll break down the dos and don’ts of communicating with professionalism, confidence, and clarity.
This is your chance to build the awareness and instincts that will help you stand out—in interviews, internships, and every professional interaction in between.
Time: 2:45- 3:45pm
Location: HU Harrisburg, Rm 1151 + Virtual
