Week 1 Journal

2

My journey through nursing school has been rough and overwhelming, to the extent that I have not started to think about finding a job. The Career Services PowerPoint shared valuable insights about post-graduation employment search. To prevent feeling swamped by the numerous job opportunities, Career Services provides their students personalized meetings with advisors. During the meetings, students can express their career goals and interests, and advisors. This allows the students to reduce the stress associated with online job hunting, making it easier to narrow down choices with guidance. Furthermore, Career Services organizes networking events and career fairs allowing students and grads to explore job prospects in person. This will encourage students to ask questions, refine preferences, and connect with potential employers. Besides aiding with job searching, Career Services assist with creating resumes, LinkedIn profiles, and interview portfolios, all used to maximize the graduate’s chances of getting their desired position. The support from Career Services is essential for successful job placement, as the process can be demanding to navigate alone. The career advisors even simulate job interviews to help students have an easier process of actual interviews. Having these resources available for preparation is reassuring, especially given the anxiety interviews often induce. Once the student is employed, Career Services continues to offer benefits through webinars and workshops that foster ongoing professional growth. Overall Career Services is a highly favored, valuable resource that all students or graduates should use when considering options for employment. With them in my corner, I can avoid countless hours of stress, anxiety and aimless job searching.
