Upon successful completion of the course, every student should:
Understand the job/internship search timeline and the career resources available through the School of Informatics and Computing
Understand the importance of and have written a high quality resume
Be able to effectively navigate a career fair and an interview
Have the ability to effectively communicate both technical and non-technical strengths to employers, both in an informal networking setting and a formal interview setting

Additionally, every informatics and computer science student should understand the importance of pursuing relevant technical and non-technical experiences to put on their resume in order to be a well-rounded job seeker. This can be achieved through part-time jobs, internships, volunteerism, co-curricular activities, technical training workshops, and maintaining a high GPA (above 3.0 is strongly recommended).

As a primary goal of the course is to teach students professional development, expectations for student behavior and communication are no different from that of a professional work environment.

ATTENDANCE
Attendance is required for all class sessions. Attendance is also required for two outside of class meetings which include; 1) the resume critique meeting and 2) the mock interview/job search
