Your ticket includes 3 individual sessions with different volunteers. When you registered, you selected up to three different session types. You will only be scheduled for the types of sessions you selected. So, if you selected only ‘Career Conversation’ you will have three conversations with different volunteers. If you selected only ‘Resume Clinic’ and ‘Mock Interview’ you will receive two of one, and one of the other. Learn More About Session Types.
The better prepared you are for the conversations you will have at the workshop, the more you will benefit from them. We’ve put together some suggestions to help you come prepared.
