Tip of the Week: Consider Short Term or Project Based Work

Look for internships, research roles, or short term projects that can build your experience. These can still give you valuable examples for future applications.

What you are building while you do this

This is more than asking questions. It is how you start building skills you will use in your experiences.

  • When you contribute to shared outcomes, that is Teamwork.
  • When you help coordinate people and tasks, that reflects Mobilizing People and Resources.

These are competencies you can later recognize and reflect on through your experiences.
