CO-HOST CAREER-FOCUSED SEMINARS
Would you like to have a Networking Night or Professional Panel Discussion for your class or organization? Perhaps a Mock Interview Session or Resume Workshop? The Rocket Career Center can help with all of that and more. We can assist faculty, staff, and students with planning professional development workshops and seminars. We bring our knowledge, experience, and resources to help you prepare and facilitate your event.
Networking Nights
Networking Nights are college or program-specific networking opportunities that connect students with alumni and employer representatives in an environment where socializing and information gathering is the focus. Collaborate with RCC to provide opportunities for your students to interact with alumni and professionals
Professional Panel Discussions
Professional Panel Discussions are moderated events where knowledgeable people on a specific topic engage in conversation with an audience. Students can gather career-related information directly from professionals and gain an opportunity to network with those professionals afterward.
Mock Interview Sessions
Mock Interview Workshops allow students to practice their interviewing skills with their peers while receiving tips and feedback from RC staff. Typically, the session consists of a short presentation on interview skills followed by three rounds where students take turns in the interviewer, interviewee, and observer roles. At the same time, RCC staff circulates through the room, providing feedback.
Additionally, RCC has experience conducting Mock MMIs with students applying for graduate programs requiring them.
Resume Workshops
Resume Workshops teach students how to prepare a professional resume that reflects their skills, knowledge, and education relevant to the job they seek. Typically, a resume workshop consists of a short presentation on resumes, followed by multiple peer review sessions where students will receive constructive feedback.
Rocket Career Center Signature Events
The Rocket Career Center offers several Signature Events such as job fairs that may be very beneficial to our students. We track student attendance at events for you if you would like to make them an assignment for your class. Please get in touch with the Liaison for your area about tracking your students’ attendance.
