Master Your Job Search: Essential Tips for International Students!

During my time pursuing my Master’s at Boston College, I learned how to effectively utilize career resources to enhance my job search.

Unfortunately, many students overlook these valuable tools.

Here is how I maximized the career services at Boston College and how you can do the same:

↳ Helping me connect with alumni who were not accessible to me through LinkedIn.

↳ Assisting me with interview preparation by conducting multiple mock interviews (I did 5), which enhanced my interview skills and approach to answering questions.

↳ Providing access to resources and websites that improved my job search as an international student.

↳ Assisting me in preparing for case studies.

↳Providing pep talks and motivation before interviews.

↳ Offering insights about the company and sharing helpful questions asked in previous interviews with other students.

↳ Assisting in tailoring my resume for specific roles.

↳ Targeting and refining my job search for roles that best suited my profile.
