By the end of this series\, you’ll have a clear plan for what you can do right now to prepare for your job search after graduation. \nThis special webinar series is designed for master’s students from all academic backgrounds: \n\nSeptember 14: 3 mistakes master’s students must avoid in their job search\nSeptember 15: The role of recruiters in the hiring process\nSeptember 16: How to build a network when you don’t have one\nSeptember 17: Strategic resume writing for master’s students\nSeptember 18: Career advice for international students job searching in the US\n\nWho Should Attend? \n\n\nJoin Beyond Graduate School for this webinar designed for master’s students from all academic disciplines.
