Today, I’d like you to find a current job posting that intrigues you in your potential future field. Link the job at the top of your post, then spend some time considering and answer the following questions:
Are you currently qualified for this position? Would you be upon graduation? If not, what could you do to get closer to qualified over the next year or two?
Peruse the organization’s website. What do they forefront or showcase in their online presence? What is their mission? What is intriguing or appealing to you about them?
Does the ad mention writing or communication? How do they describe these needs? How might you display these types of skills on a resume or a cover letter? What additional kinds of writing do you anticipate this job would require? Do you feel prepared to complete such communications?
