SBS411

This course engages students in designing their personal plan for searching for a job or internship through the gaining of knowledge about timelines, resources, and expectations of a successful search and reflecting on how their personal skills have value in their desired career path. Utilizing a design thinking process to develop their plan, students will define what opportunities align with their career path and values and connect to their skills and experiences. Students will design an actionable plan for their job/internship search that lay outs how they will pursue those opportunities, execute their plan, and remain open to iteration in the process. Ultimately, students will be able to present themselves professionally through their application documents (resume, cover letter, etc.) and in an interview. Ideally, students will take this course when they would like to start a search for an internship or job. It is recommended but not required that students take SBS 311 prior to this course, or have completed 60 units and have declared a major.
