It also has surveys of average starting salaries for new college graduates by field of study and employer. Going to Career Services is not the only thing students can do to prepare for the workplace. Getting a job has very little to do with expertise.
Activities are important to build team-building and leadership needed.
Networking is also a key component when students are looking for a job. You don't want to focus 100 percent looking on the Internet or in newspaper when you'll only be tapping into 10 percent of the jobs available. Students are encouraged to begin networking as soon as possible to build contacts with professionals in their field. Students can also research jobs by performing what is known as an information interview. People love to talk about themselves.
