Helpful Info for Your Future Job and Major


This past Wednesday, we had the opportunity to listen to a speaker that was talking about how to edit your resume and LinkedIn account to really stand out from the rest. She first started out by saying to make sure you are in the major you are completely interested in, or else you just will not enjoy the job. She had started off in accounting and then a few years later, changed it to HR. This has given her the ability to help us all out with constructing stronger resumes. She also highly recommended that we look in to the Meyers-Griggs test, I had previously taken it and my personality type is ISFP, also nicknamed “the artist” which fits towards me opening an Etsy account months ago, using the creativity to make items and to sell. But this personality can help in the business world, by introducing different ways to promote a business, like what was done with this internship, and finding different ways to complete a task. She was also very descriptive on how our resumes should look and what it is we should put on them to stand out for our major, such as, using the words that a company requires from a future employer in your resume to really show how this skill is used by you and how effective it was by including positive changes.
