I've learned about motivational interviewing and stages of change. I've also learned about career support applications and the importance of it.  Overall, the material has taught me how to be even more successful in helping others in the academic and clinical setting.

I may be dating myself, but I was always told to have a 1 page resume with references available but not on it.  I am learning now this is no longer the case. I wonder, if employers only look at a resume for <2 minutes, why should it be longer?

The best 2 pieces of advice I will relay to my students from this module are "Google yourself!" and job shadowing.  It is important for students to see the day-to-day activities of their future career.

I appreciate that this module provided examples of good emails.  I find the detailed examples to be very informative, as well as they provide me with a template of an ideal response that I plan to use in future emails.  Since email is difficult to read in the voice of the writer, I find I am misunderstood regularly and this has helped me see why.

As I read this module, the term "de-escalation" kept going through my mind.  When students are looking for easy solutions, it's important to help them picture a realistic goal and path for achieving it. I can serve as a cheerleader, sounding board, or motivator.

As I read through this module I have learned how to navigate my fundamental abilities to make sure that I am using my skills like communication, and problem-solving when I am called upon. Also, critical thinking, and great teamwork in different areas of jobs.

A lot of our students exhibit passive coping when approaching their job search, often getting locked up in the fear of a negative outcome. The fear setting worksheet and the goal visualization worksheet provided at the end of this module will be an excellent tool to help guide the students into a more proactive frame of mind.
