Develop Important Career Skills

You need other key skills to get the job you want. You need a solid resume, you need to interview well, and it always helps to network effectively. These skill-based presentations are meant to equip you for other events during the meeting.

• Getting the Job: Resume Development
• Getting the Job: Interviews
• Getting the Job: Networking

These supplemental materials are being developed as well as we transition Career Central to an evergreen resource on ESA’s website.

• Resume Resources
• Interview Resources
• Networking Resources

You can work on your networking in any of dozens of social events and dedicated networking sessions. For resume and interview skills, we offer live resume reviews and mock job interviews.
