SEPT 11 - 14, 2023
2023 Virtual Boot Camp for Master's Students
Presented by the Global Higher Education Division of ETS
How do you prepare for a job search after graduating with your master’s?
Maybe you’re an international student who has limited time to quickly find and land an internship. Maybe you’ve started your master’s in the hope of advancing in your career, but you’re not sure how to leverage your degree with employers.
Master’s students like you are busy. Finding career support and the resources you need can be challenging when you have so many commitments already. That’s why we’ve designed this one-week boot camp experience to help you quickly gain the insight you need to launch a job (or internship) search.
During this online boot camp, you will learn:
1. How to go beyond online job sites and tap into the hidden job market;
2. How to navigate a career fair with confidence;
3. How to network when you don’t have a network;
4. And how to write a resume that will be read by a hiring manager.
