Members of the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society chapter at the 这些城市的校园 are writing PTK Posts for their 2021 College Project. College Projects are a way for PTK chapters to engage and give back to their colleges.
The goal of PTK Posts is for 这些城市的校园 PTK members to share student stories and information to help current and prospective BHC students be successful and happy with their college experience. 今年早些时候, PTK officers conducted a survey of current BHC students/PTK members to ask what BHC services they had the most questions about.
One of the top Black Hawk College resources students had questions about was 职业服务, which offers free employment assistance to students and community members. 在这篇文章中, 利亚穆勒, PTK服务副总裁, 和Angela Striegel一起工作, Black Hawk College coordinator of career planning/placement, 了解更多关于就业服务的信息.

求职建议
你对找工作的应届毕业生有什么建议?
三件事:
- 网络 – 网络ing is one of the best ways to find employment. 从家庭成员开始, 朋友, 邻居, coworkers and professors to inquire about opportunities and get some leads. Join and attend professional organization meetings in your field. 志愿者. 使用 LinkedIn.
- 研究 – It’s important to know what employers are looking for in new hires. Go to Indeed and find job descriptions that interest you. 识别重复的关键词和短语. Highlight those skills in your résumé, cover letter and throughout interviews.
- 利用就业服务 – We are here to support you every step of your journey!
“热”的职业
有哪些“热门”职业?
This is a tricky question because there are different ways to determine what makes a job “hot.” You also have different variables to consider like years of education or type of degree required for each job. U.S. 《bbin信誉网站》有一个名单 2021年100个最佳工作 that covers everything from software developers to physical therapist assistants, 从机械工程师到抽血师.
一个研究“热门职业”的好地方是 O *网在线. 本网站使用U.S. Department of Labor statistics to share employment information and trends in an easy to understand format. O *净了 光明前景, which are occupations expected to grow rapidly in the next several years or that will have large numbers of job openings. 有些工作给我留下了深刻的印象，比如会计, 计算机和信息系统经理, 法院记者, 健康信息专家, CNAs, lpn, 注册护士, 外科技术人员和网络开发人员.
面试的建议
我下周有个面试. 我该怎么准备呢?
很好的问题!
还记得我们之前讨论过的研究吗? It’s important to research the company you are interviewing with and learn as much about the organization and the position as you can. The knowledge you gain will increase your comfort level and confidence during the interview. It will become apparent to the interviewer that you did your homework, which demonstrates your interest and excitement about the opportunity.
练习也很重要. 不要突然就去参加面试. 复习常见面试问题. Rehearse with a friend or practice in front of a mirror. 使用 大面试, a cool platform provided to you free of charge as a BHC student. You can watch videos about the interview process and you can take the opportunity to practice your answers using your computer’s video function. 创建您的 大面试 使用组织代码0542的帐户.
Finally, schedule a mock interview with 职业服务. We’ll work with you to fine tune responses and answer any questions you have about the interview process. You can also schedule an appointment with 职业服务 for help researching the company and position.
