This past Thursday and Friday Toppel hosted EPIC: Employer
Practice Interviews & Critiques, giving students a chance to have mock
interviews and resume critiques with major employers like Bloomingdales and the
Peace Corps among countless others. Even as a Toppel Peer Advisor, I had only
attended or participated in one Toppel event previously; a careers in the
natural sciences night last semester. Based on my experiences from these two
events I can’t stress enough how much students should take advantage of the amazing
opportunities that Toppel offers!
Last spring at the careers in natural sciences night, I made
multiple contacts, one of which ultimately led to the internship I have just
started this semester and could potentially lead into work for my Master’s
degree next year. Thursday during EPIC, I received invaluable feedback and advice
on interviewing skills, and the opportunity to openly ask a recruiter questions
in a more informal setting.
There are countless information sessions, on-campus
interviews, career nights, workshops, and other events that take place at
Toppel throughout the semester, offering countless opportunities to prepare
yourself for internships or careers. So come in to Toppel and check our website
for all the different events that are coming up this semester! It’s still early
in the semester so make sure to take advantage of these opportunities now.
