What is your favorite piece of career advice to give?

If you meet most of the qualifications for an internship or job you're interested in, apply! It’s not always the most qualified candidate that gets the job. An enthusiastic candidate that is eager to learn and grow within an organization is so valuable.  

What is one thing you wish every student knew about career planning?

What you want to do today will probably change a few years from now. It’s common for people to change career paths and it’s okay if your likes and interests adapt as you gain more experience. Career paths are not as linear as they seem!

What is one myth about job searching you’d love to bust? 

Job searching should not be a full-time job. It’s easy to focus on just sending out as many applications as possible, but if you prioritize higher-impact tasks like networking and crafting quality application materials, you’ll get more bang for your buck. Work smarter, not harder!
 

What is one thing you wish every student knew about career planning? 

You don’t have to have it all figured out right now! Each org you try, each class you take, each lab you join, etc. gives you a little more contextual information about the work that you like (or don’t like) to do. Pay attention to how you feel and enjoy the ride!

What is one myth about job searching you’d love to bust? 

That tailoring your resume and cover letter for each position is a waste of time. AND also, the myth that tailoring your documents takes a ton of time! I’d love to bust both of these myths by showing you ways to create a tailored application with a low time investment!
