4 Benefits of Linked in

You may not have heard of LinkedIn before, or you may have heard of it and signed up but are unsure how to use it. As a Career Specialist, LinkedIn is a valuable tool for us in our role to help students conduct occupational research, make and maintain connections and to stay connected to opportunities. On the site, the creators provide a great explanation: “LinkedIn is the leading professional network on the web, enabling you to: connect with classmates, faculty, and family professionally; find new opportunities for internships and full time positions; manage what potential employers learn about you from the Internet”. If that sounds good, read on to find out more about the ways in which LinkedIn can help you.

Keep Track of your Contacts Find a Job

Next Steps

Market Yourself

Grow your NetworkAre you interested in a certain company? Do you want to learn more about an industry or an association? LinkedIn allows you to search for groups and companies to learn more about industry trends. You can also reach out from the comfort of your own inbox to connect with professionals who have your dream job or to learn more about the company culture within their organization.

Whenever you attend a course or conference it is likely you will meet new people. Your current and previous volunteer and work experiences as well as your academic communities are all places where relationships are built and contacts are gained. LinkedIn is a great tool to keep track of all of these people – past and present through your online account.

Many employers are now using LinkedIn as a way to promote job postings and source candi-dates. You can stay in touch with what is hap-pening and who is hiring through your account.

LinkedIn provides you an opportunity to create a profile, list your experience and skills, and have managers or colleagues endorse you as a professional or for certain skills. Students with limited work experience can really input a lot of detail into their education. Students can also include within the status that they are an Aspiring “whatever”. If you want to create a positive reputation online, LinkedIn is a great way to keep track of all you have accomplished and to brand yourself as an ideal candidate.

Stay tuned in the New Year for Job Search/Networking 101 Part 2 workshop which will focus on using social media when searching for a job. Register for workshops on CareerLink at ucalgary.ca/careers. Visit Linkedin’s YouTube Channel which will assist you in creating an effective profile.

2012 Career & Job Expo 10

By Amanda Foley

With the vast and varied programs in the Arts Faculty many students are challenged to find a specific career path that answers this common question. Here are some suggestions to help you find career success and discover that with an Arts degree you really can do anything.

Your Arts undergraduate degree provides you with skills that are not only transferrable but also desirable in the workplace. Understanding and describing these to an employer will let them know what you can do for them, and help you stand out from the crowd. Whether you are talking to employers or family and friends, the details you provide will direct them to where and how they can help you. Simply stating that you have strong oral and written communication, research and analysis, or critical thinking skills, is not enough. However if you provide specific information, a prospective employer can better understand your skills and where you might fit into their organization.

For example, this introduction clearly details this student’s skills and strengths: “Hello, I’m an Arts student in the interdisciplinary program of Sociology. My studies have provided me with strong research and analysis skills that have led me to a better understanding of numerous global social issues. I’ve completed independent and team projects and enjoy reviewing statistics to understand causes and outcomes. I would like to use my analytical skills to evaluate data that could be used to recommend actions. “

Approach career planning and job search like a major course project with multiple components; assessment, research, in-person interviews and writing. Self assessment will help you determine what you like to do, your skills and strengths, and what types of work environments would suit you best. In addition to researching potential employers you will need to research and appreciate the general and specific skills you are gaining from your degree, so talk to your professors and review program websites. You also need to connect with people in careers that interest you. The purpose of this project is to give you a starting point and a focus, and once you have determined the type of work you would like to do the next step is to find ways to get firsthand experience. This could be through volunteering on or off campus or through work programs such as the Co-operative Education program. Your resume and cover letter are the writing components of the project. After your research is complete you will be able to clearly and concisely highlight why you are a great candidate.

Finally, take advantage of all the resources available on campus while you are completing your degree. Consider the Co-operative Education program, work and study abroad options with CISSA, talk to your professors, and be sure to meet with a Career Specialist from Career Services.

For more information about CISSA visit http://www.ucalgary.ca/uci/

2012 Career & Job Expo 17

In today’s tight job market, students need a competitive edge. With more and more applicants competing for summer or full-time positions, and increased applications for graduate and professional schools, standing out from the crowd has never been more important. At the University of Calgary, the Co-Curricular Record (CCR) is just the edge students need. Implemented in January 2009, and funded by the Students’ Union Quality Money Program, the CCR is an official University of Calgary document that recognizes and records students’ involvement in on-campus volunteer and co-curricular work. The University of Calgary was the first university in Western Canada to introduce this successful program, but with other universities now adopting similar programs, resumes with the CCR attached could become the norm for many university students.

“From the time the record launched to present, I have seen students develop a stronger competency in being able to talk about their experiences, but explicitly what they have learned as a result of those experiences” comments Gareth McVicar, Manager, Leadership, Training and Development. “As a document, the CCR allows students to have so many reflective and “aha” moments as they look back over their involvement history, and it’s this reflection that makes for stronger interviews overall.” Activities that can be recorded on a student’s CCR are as diverse as the campus. From service learning trips abroad, to work as Community Advisors in Residence, involvement in any number of on-campus clubs, and participation in varsity athletics to the completion of professional development certificates, students record their involvement on-campus, and match these to learning outcomes.

Brayden Kooistra, a third year Engineering student comments, “I am only part way through my degree, and the CCR has already proven to be a useful tool for me. It is a great way to compliment my resume and highlight the extracurricular events that I take part in. It has proven to be a useful tool in applying to both job postings and scholarship opportunities. I would highly encourage any student to look into how the CCR can benefit them.” Caitlin Kane, a fourth-year double major in Psychology and Drama adds, “as a student heavily involved on campus, the Co-Curricular Record has helped me keep track of my activities and given me recognition of my involvement. I’ve used the CCR since my very first year, and I continue to use it to supplement my professional life.”

For more information on the Co-Curricular Record, visit: https://leadership.ucalgary.ca

If you are a student at the University of Calgary reading this, listen closely. CareerLink, the online recruitment database for the U of C, may have capabilities you didn’t even think possible. You may be asking yourself, “Who are you? Why I am reading this? What is a recruitment database and how does it affect my life?” Great questions; let’s chat:

First of all, CareerLink is a database where job opportunities are posted, upcoming career workshops and recruitment events are advertised, and where you can RSVP for said events. But that’s not all, folks. CareerLink also contains a convenient Student Resources page where you can view all the upcoming events, career fairs, and other on-campus professional development events at the University.

So by now, you’re thinking, “Wow, this is truly incredible. How did I miss out on this amazing resource all these years? I have really missed out and looking into CareerLink now is probably a lost cause”.

Well, we’re here to tell you, “NO. There is still time, grasshopper.”

Luckily, we have super dedicated Career Specialists in our office sitting, waiting, and wishing for students (like you!) to book appointments with them. These Career Specialists are available to meet with you about a variety of topics including, but limited to, choosing majors, exploring careers, and conducting a successful work search. The best part of all; appointment bookings can all be done via CareerLink, that fantastic database we introduced to you at the beginning.

So what should you take out of this? Let’s break it down into point form:

- Visit CareerLink by going to www.ucalgary.ca/careers and clicking on the CareerLink banner.

- Log into CareerLink using your UofC Access username and password.

- Familiarize yourself with the database and how to utilize its services. By familiarizing yourself with CareerLink early, it will soon become second nature to you and you will be able to give yourself a well-deserved pat on the back. ■
