Tip of the Week: Turn Every Opportunity Into Experience

Even if a role is not directly related to your field, focus on the skills you are building. Every role gives you something you can use later.

What you are building while you do this

This is more than doing a job. It is how you start building skills you will use in your experiences. 

  • When you work with others, that is Teamwork. 

  • When you contribute to a positive and supportive environment, that reflects Cultivating Safety, Trust, and Collaboration. 

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