Mock Interviews: Part 2!

By Samantha Martens

ATTENTION EVERYONE! Career Services will be hosting mock interviews for the second time this school year during the week of April 8th! If you heard about the mock interviews that we had last semester but you missed out on them, now is your chance to try again! Speak with real recruiters and business people (some of whom are alumni) just to test out your interview skills. There are no strings attached, and there are no jobs or internships on the line. This is simply a chance for you to get more comfortable with the interviewing process. BUT YOU HAVE TO SIGN-UP BY FRIDAY, APRIL 5TH AT NOON!

There are peach-colored sign-up sheets on the door of the Career Services office, located in Thomas Library’s COMPASS Sweet Success Center. We’ve got opportunities for you to practice interviewing Monday through Thursday in 30- or 45-minute time slots. So feel free to sign-up for the date, time, and time increment that works best for you! You can practice interviewing for jobs, internships, or graduate schools, so we really cater to all your needs!

These mock interviews are truly a great opportunity for Witt students. I myself participated in the mock interview during Fall semester, and I’m so glad that I did! I had one in-person interview, and it went really well. My interviewer gave me a lot of helpful feedback and asked me questions that you could expect to hear from any normal interview. I took part in a second interview as well (because practice makes perfect!), and that one was over the phone. It was very different because I’d never done a phone interview before, but it was just as helpful as the first one! My interviewer threw some curveball questions at me, such as “If you had to guess, how many windows are in New York City?” or “How would you describe the color blue to a blind person?” These questions definitely threw me off a little, but I knew that she only asked them to help prepare me for any surprises in interviews in the future.

Not only that, but when my phone interviewer found out that I’m a senior, she asked me about what I wanted to do after graduation, so I told her about my interests and hopes and she actually connected me with two of her colleagues in Springfield who do EXACTLY what I’m interested in! So in this one interview, I got to practice my interviewing skills, I was pushed to think outside the box, AND I got to make some great networking connections!! I met up with one of those colleagues over winter break, and we talked for an hour-and-a-half about his experiences in the field. It was an awesome chance for me to learn more about my interests from a professional in the area!

So you never know who you might meet as part of these mock interviews. Even if you don’t happen to make any ideal connections, you’ll at least get some great practice with interviewing. Prep yourself for when you have to go to an ACTUAL interview for your dream job, internship, or grad school. Like I said, practice makes perfect, so be sure to sign up for the Career Services Mock Interviews the week of April 8th! Call 937-327-7521 if you have any questions.

How to Rock Your Résumé

By Samantha Martens

Alright Tigers, when was the last time you looked at your résumé? And I mean REALLY looked at it? When applying for internships, jobs, or grad school, your résumé is one of the most important aspects of your application because it’s the first impression that employers or recruiters get to see of you. It tells them about your education, your experiences, your past jobs, your extra-curricular activities, and more. It shows them your skills, qualifications, and passions.

But speaking of first impressions and ways in which recruiters or employers can contact you, be sure to consider your social media accounts. We all have them, and we all like to post about the fun things we do, but you may want to reevaluate any super embarrassing or misleading photos or posts that you made. If the company or school that you’re applying to sees anything that could be considered inappropriate on your accounts, that may affect their opinions about you, unfortunately.

Knowing this, you want to make sure that your résumé is really dressed to impress! You should be conscious of the formatting, for instance. Templates are fine to use, but they’re often hard to maneuver. Simply using a bullet point system, or Roman numerals, is a much easier way to organize your résumé while still fitting in all of the necessary information. You also have to make sure to include your contact information! Your name, email, phone number, address, and a link to your LinkedIn account are all good options that employers or recruiters can use to get in touch with you. Keep in mind that your name should be large and across the top to that it stands out!

Next you should list your Education. Include the type of degree you’ll be receiving (Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, etc.), your major(s), minor(s), and GPA (as long as it’s above a 3.0 – if it’s not, consider putting you Major GPA instead). If you’ve studied abroad, you can definitely add the name of the university that your program was affiliated with, too! It can also be helpful to list any relevant seminars or training sessions that you’ve attended. Your résumé is the place to showcase all of the different types of experiences you’ve had that will benefit you as you enter the professional world.

Then you get to your previous Employment and Experience. What’s the difference between the two? Employment specifically includes paid work that you’ve done, while experiences can be any kind of volunteering, unpaid internships, or relevant classes you took that could be beneficial to the position that you’re applying for. When you add these to your résumé, make sure to provide the Company’s Name, the Job Title/Position, where it was Located, and the Dates of your employment. This section shows that you’ve done relevant things to what the employer is looking for. Make sure to use action verbs, too! Show them that you have done exactly what it is that you’re listing on your résumé.

Your Skills and Abilities section should list any special things that you are familiar with that are relevant to the position. At this point, most people are fairly skilled with Microsoft Word and PowerPoint, but if you’re an ace with Excel, or you’re especially comfortable using Publisher, let your employer or recruiter know that! Or if you’re bilingual, that’s another really impressive skill that can make you stand out. Did you do a class project that is relevant to the kinds of things you’d be doing with this company or school? Tell them about it! They’ll be thrilled to see what kinds of things you can do that sets you apart from the other applicants.

You should also plan on listing the Activities and Honors that you’re involved with, because, as we all know, Witt students are 100% over-involved, and you should show off your dedication! If you’ve been recognized for your work with a particular club, or if you made it into your department’s Honor society, be sure to list that on your résumé. If you’ve got it, flaunt it. But make sure that it’s relevant to what you’re applying for! 😉

This also applies to any Memberships and Affiliations (as long as they’re relevant to the job, internship, or school). For example, if you’re applying to Seminary School, you should definitely include information about the church you attend, or the Young Life group that you lead! On the other hand, if you’re applying for a non-profit job, it’ll be helpful to show off that you’re a member of the Grant Professionals Association, or anything similar. Those kinds of things can really help you out!

One thing I haven’t mentioned yet is the Objective. This is a short little sentence at the beginning of your résumé, and it should be as specific as humanly possible. For example, if you’re applying to be a paralegal, your objective should simply say: “A position as a paralegal for the Prosecuting Attorney’s Office.” That is your entire objective (or reason) for applying for the paralegal position, so that’s all you need to say! Honestly, the objective could be left out of your résumé as long as the cover letter is focused, specific, and the job title is somehow worked in there.

Even now that you know all of this, your résumé isn’t going to be perfect right off the bat! You’re going to have to draft it multiple times and have multiple people look over it for you, like the Career Services staff and a couple of your professors! You can ask these people about the order that you list the different sections in (chronological vs. functional), as well.

These are simply some of the basics of building an awesome résumé. We would love to see you all stop by the Career Services office (Room 210 in Thomas Library’s COMPASS Sweet Success Center) so that we can help you edit and perfect your own! Our goal is to help you have a mind-blowing résumé so that all these recruiters and employers will have no choice but to accept or hire you.

Graduate & Professional School Fair

By Samantha Martens

Have you ever considered going to graduate school? Even if you’re only a freshman, it’s never too early to start building good connections with grad school recruiters because they really do remember students from year to year. And seniors, if you’re not immediately going to grad school, but you know you want to go at some point down the line, make sure you head over to Geil Lounge, in the lower level of the Student Center, on Thursday, February 7th from 11:50am-2:00pm for our biannual Graduate & Professional School Fair! And make sure you show up in your best business casual outfit to impress all 26 recruiters.

We have representatives from all kinds of programs, such as:

  • Theology/Seminary
  • Post-Secondary or Higher Education
  • Environmental
  • Non-Profit/Philanthropy
  • Social Services
  • Veterinary
  • Law
  • Management
  • Accounting
  • Advertising/Marketing/Public Relations
  • Business
  • and Finance/Banking/Insurance

Don’t see your ideal program on this list? Come and check out all of the different schools that are going to be at the Fair! When you follow this link and enter your Wittenberg email in the box that says EMAIL ADDRESS*, you can create a username and password for yourself. Then, once you’ve logged in, click “Go To Dashboard” at the bottom of the page, find “My Events,” and select the Spring 2019 Graduate/Professional School Fair to see the full list of registered schools! Be sure to keep in mind that just because a recruiter from your program-of-choice isn’t at our Fair, doesn’t mean that the school itself doesn’t offer your program! All you have to do is ask around, and I’m sure the recruiter will at least be able to tell you whether or not the program is offered at their institution.

While you’re at the Fair, you’ll be able to network with representatives from graduate/professional schools about their programs as well as the application process in general, because we all know how intimidating THAT can be! It’s like applying for undergrad, but you usually need a CV (curriculum vitae), and then there are all kinds of different interviews, and it’s just nerve-wracking in general. But that’s why we host these Fairs! We want to you feel comfortable talking with these recruiters and we want you to know the right questions to ask.

Speaking of questions, if you ever have concerns once you decide on the program and university that’s right for you, come see us in Career Services! We know pretty much everything there is to know about CVs, which are basically just written overviews of your experiences and skills. It provides graduate/professional schools with your academic background, including any teaching experience, degrees earned, research completed, awards received, publications, presentations, etc. And if you’re nervous about the interviews, we’ve got you covered! We can help you run through mock-interviews till we’re all blue in the face. We’ve got tips, tricks, and helpful hints that’ll turn you into an interviewing pro in no time!

So don’t hesitate to come to the Fair this Thursday. In the long run, it can only benefit you! Talk to a few different recruiters, see what they have to offer, and figure out what steps you need to take to be ready to tackle graduate school!

The OFIC CareerFest

By Samantha Martens

The OFIC CareerFest is THIS FRIDAY, February 1st in Kasich Hall at the Ohio Expo Center (717 E 17th Ave. Columbus, OH 43211)! The event is from 10:00am-2:00pm and you can go at your earliest convenience. And did we mention that it’s absolutely FREE FOR STUDENTS?!

OFIC stands for the “Ohio Foundation of Independent Colleges,” and Wittenberg is lucky enough to be a part of that organization! This means that we get access to all these career fairs, just so you can have a chance to learn more about job opportunities in Ohio and all around the country! With 88 organizations already registered, you’re bound to find something that suits your fancy.

The only thing you have to do is follow the link here to learn more about all of those different recruiters, and follow this second link to register for the event. Unfortunately, there will not be university-provided transportation to CareerFest, but if you talk to your friends you could probably get a whole group to go! Even if none of you have any idea what you want to do with your life, this could be a great starting point. Simply by attending, you’ll be able to work on your “elevator pitch” (the little story you tell about yourself that includes your name, major, interests, and plans for the future), your networking skills, and hopefully you’ll find an organization that really speaks to you. And please keep in mind that just because you’re not a senior doesn’t mean you can’t take advantage of the opportunities that are available to you through Wittenberg and the OFIC CareerFest!

Most of your professors will understand if you have to miss class because of this, especially because you’re going solely to try and figure out options for your life after undergrad. And besides, there will be organizations like:

  • Aldi Foods,
  • City of Columbus – Division of Police,
  • Columbus City Schools,
  • the Columbus Recreation and Parks Department,
  • Defense Finance and Accounting Service,
  • DHL Supply Chain,
  • Family Resource Center of Northwest Ohio, Inc.,
  • Honda,
  • IES Internships,
  • JPMorgan,
  • Konecranes,
  • Nationwide Children’s Hospital,
  • Ohio Department of ________ (literally almost everything),
  • Henry Schein Animal Health,
  • Speedway LLC,
  • State Farm,
  • TEKsystems,
  • Verizon Wireless,
  • and more!

These are only a fraction of the organizations that will be in attendance! And just because a business like Aldi’s is hiring, doesn’t mean that they’re looking for cashiers. Aldi’s Headquarters are frequently looking to fill corporate jobs, among other things! So you really don’t want to miss out on this. You’ve got plenty of time this week leading up to the event to stop by Career Services (Thomas Library’s COMPASS Sweet Success Center, room 210) for any help you might need. We can assist you with your resume, business cards, networking techniques, and pretty much anything you can think of! We’ll see you throughout the week, and we wish you the best of luck when you go to CareerFest!

Interview Intimidation

By: Samantha Martens

Hey there. How do you feel about your interview skills? Do you think you know everything you need to know? Would you describe yourself as a pro-interviewee? Even if you ARE an expert, come visit Career Services to test your skills!

We have all sorts of opportunities for you to practice interviewing here on campus. Last semester, we had a whole week of mock-interviews that many students took advantage of! We had real recruiters come to conduct the mock-interviews in-person, but we even had a few who requested to do phone-interviews with students. Of the Witt students who signed up, some were interviewing to prepare for grad school interviews and others were hoping to hone their skills to get ready for job or internship interviews. We cater to all needs!

Focusing again on interviews themselves, video, Skype, and phone interviews are becoming more and more popular. Interviews in general are a little intimidating, but some people feel that these alternatives are even more nerve-wracking because you don’t get the same body language, visuals, and real-life interactions that you get when you interview with an organization in-person. But never fear! Here at Career Services, we can help you to prepare for any type of interview that you can think of! We have spaces that you can use to “rehearse,” we have prompts that you can consider, and tips and tricks for you to try out. Our goal is to make you feel comfortable with and prepared for the process of interviewing.

Make sure that you’re keeping up with the Career Services blog and social media, because sooner than later, we’re going to create a video to walk you through pre-recorded interviews! You might be wondering, “What the heck are those?!” Well, they’re basically exactly what they sound like. A company or organization will provide you with interview questions, they will ask you to record yourself responding to those questions, and then you upload those recordings onto their application program. It hardly seems like an interview at all, but that’s another popular form of interviewing that’s on the rise.

It’s also helpful to have an elevator pitch. An elevator pitch is just a quick little speech about yourself (your name, major, interests, maybe some past experiences) that, theoretically, you can give in the time it takes to go up an elevator. It shows recruiters that you know how to talk about yourself in a humble manner while still giving enough information about what you do and what you hope to do in the future.

These different interview skills and knowledge can only benefit you. Even if you think you’re the best interviewee in the whole world, it wouldn’t hurt you to stop into Career Services to practice and develop your skills even further. Plus, we don’t bite! Come see us in Thomas Library’s COMPASS Sweet Success Center in Room 210.

Happy Spring 2019!

  • Finally, on Wednesday, March 20th, we will host our annual Etiquette Dinner!

On a side note… If you did something AWESOME last semester or over break, we would LOVE to hear about it! At Wittenberg, we value your learning experiences inside and outside of the classroom. Your experiences at internships are opportunities for you to see how your hard work relates to the outside world and we would appreciate hearing about your accomplishments! Please tell us about your internship so that your academic department, the alumni, and prospective students can see the amazing things you have done!

Use Winter Break to Prepare for Your Future

By Samantha Martens

Happy last week of classes everyone! You made it!

While you’re on that glorious, month-long break from classes, homework, and the general stress of school, consider taking a look at that resume of yours! How out-of-date is it? Do you still have some of your high school activities on there? At this point, you’re probably involved enough here on campus that you can replace those old clubs with the ones you’re currently involved in. This is just one of many little steps that you can take to make yourself feel more prepared for life after school! Even if you’re just looking for a summer internship or a part-time job, these smaller details of your resume are what employers are really looking at.

I know that sounds a little daunting, but that’s why we have Career Services! The office is located in room 210 of the Thomas Library’s COMPASS Sweet Success Center, and both Wendy and Teresa are here to help with all of your questions. Over winter break, think about your goals for the foreseeable future. Are you hoping to find a summer job while you’re home next summer? Look into the company/business/organization you’re interested in to see what kinds of things they require when interviewing and hiring new employees. Do you need a cover letter? How are your interview skills in general? Also, be sure to look into the positions that they have available to see what might best suit you. The last thing you want is a job that you’re not going to be happy with.

After taking these kinds of things into consideration, come back to campus in January and ask Teresa to schedule you an appointment with Wendy! Wendy can look over the resume you’ve been editing, answer your questions about how on earth you structure a cover letter, and then you can schedule a mock-interview so that you can hone in on your skills before you have to go through the real deal! We have so many different ways in which we can help you; all you have to do is reach out and ask.

And don’t forget about our different events throughout the semester! You can view our Events Calendar through our blog page, but for your convenience (and so you can go ahead and mark your calendars now), here’s what we’ve got going on during Spring 2019:

  • The OFIC CareerFest in Columbus: Friday, February 1st from 10:00am-2:00pm at the Ohio Expo Center – Cardinal Hall
  • Our Graduate/Professional School Fair: Thursday, February 7th from 11:50am-2:00pm in Geil Lounge – Lower Level of the Student Center
  • Our Job and Internship Fair: Thursday, February 21st from 11:50am-2:00pm in Geil Lounge – Lower Level of the Student Center
  • Our Etiquette Dinner: Wednesday, March 20th from 5:30-7:00pm – registration is required to attend! Call our office at 937-327-7521 or stop in to register, and bring your friends!

All of these events highly suggest that you wear professional or business casual attire, by the way. It wouldn’t hurt to have your resume or a business card (which we can also help you design AND give you 20 free copies) with you so that you can start networking and really get your name out there.

If you’ve got any questions at all, please do not hesitate to contact us or stop by! We’re happy to help with all of your #adulting worries, and we’ll do everything that we possibly can to make sure you feel prepared for, and comfortable with, your future.

We hope that you have an absolutely wonderful winter break, and we wish you the best of luck with your final papers, presentations, and exams! You’ve got this.

Introducing Intern Andrew O’Malley

Getting Creative at the Cranach Haus

By Samantha Martens

How did you find out about this internship?

Through the Witt in Wittenberg study abroad program. I had not really heard much about it until we got the list of different internships that were available to us once we were over in Germany.

Did it relate to your major/field of interest?painting.png

Yes, actually. I was really happy about that. I’m an art major and I was very pleased that I actually got to do some art specific stuff while studying abroad. The painting was especially fun to do.

Briefly describe your internship and your duties as an intern.

I was asked to be there at 9:00 every morning and typically the majority of my work would be finished around noon. Every other day there would be visiting students from local schools that would come and work on different art projects. I wasn’t allowed to help them directly but I did assist in preparing for the project, cleaning up afterwards, Windowsand showing them examples of what to do. When I wasn’t working with the students I was given projects to do that would benefit the school as a whole. I prepared for a flower festival for about a week, then I spent the last bit of my time there painting a section of windows for the community to see. Luckily, while we were in Wittenberg, the art school was hosting a traveling artist group from Berlin that was building a tiny house village behind the property. Whenever I wasn’t helping the school, I would go see if the guys from Berlin needed anything. I helped them with what I could, and that helped me to complete my required number of hours for the internship.

What was your favorite part about the experience? Least favorite?Tiny Houses

My favorite was definitely the guys from Berlin. I ended up hanging out with them a lot. They gave me books to read, invited me to bonfires, and a breakfast event they hosted several times. They taught me all the German curse words, and I elaborated on the English ones. One day in particular was really funny. One of the artists was from Puerto Rico, lived in Berlin, and spoke German, and I, an American, was teaching him some basic Chinese. The linguistics were strong that day. My least favorite was probably just that I wasn’t able to interact with the students more than I did.

Did your internship supervisor happen to be a Wittenberg alumni? Or are they unaffiliated with the university?

No. Being a German woman, she was completely unaffiliated with the school.

Would you recommend having an internship during one semester versus another? Or over the summer?

StudentsI really liked that it was during the Spring semester because there’s a lot of outside work involved, so fall wouldn’t really be as enjoyable during the colder months. Although, there are some fall festivals that the school takes part in that might have been really fun to be a part of. I don’t know if I would have wanted it to be during the summer because I’m not sure if the visiting students would still come to work on projects, and I liked being able to help them with their work as much as I could.
