The spring semester is in full swing and what better way to fully maximize your time and make something out of it than by getting involved and attending the many Toppel Career Center events that will occur throughout the upcoming months.
Many of you may have attended the Spring Kick Off at The Rock and got a chance to be introduced to Toppel, win a prize or get a slice of pizza. For those of you who didn't, don't stress out because there will be plenty of other events where you will be able to get involved.
Lets focus on the next big event not to miss on February 6th - the EPIC Program (Employer Practice Interview & Critique). During this event students will get an opportunity to receive a mock interview as well as get their resumes critiqued by various employers and it is a great way to prepare for the upcoming Career Expo. Students will get the experience of being able to talk to the employer about their resume and find out what the employer will be looking for on certain resumes. During the mock interview appointment, the employer will conduct the interview and afterwards critique the student and allow them to ask any questions they might have on what they can do to improve.
Is your resume up to date, do you want to improve it or just create a brand new one and you don't know what to do? Then make sure you come to RESUMANIA! This is the biggest resume event we have all semester. Students will have the opportunity to meet with peer advisers, members of the staff or the graduate assistants on a walk-in basis who will be ready to help in an instant with any questions about resumes.
Moving on to the next event and it is the one you absolutely do not want to miss. Get ready for the Career Expo! This is the single biggest event that is sponsored through the Toppel Career Center. This year there will be over 100 various employers looking to speak to bright and ambitious students with various aspirations in hopes of finding a good candidate for their company. This event is specifically designed to expose University of Miami students to different career paths and allow them to network with professionals. Students will have a chance to meet with representatives from various companies and ask questions about the company and inquire what type of students they are looking for as well as internship, development, and other opportunities. Don't forget to dress in business professional attire and bring plenty of resumes. Career Expo is Wednesday, February 13 from 3:00-7:00 p.m. in the Herbert Wellness Center.
