I learned that it is very important to keep in touch and to continue communicating with past students and employers. 

I go into each class at our Career-Tech center and teach lessons on interviewing. I learned a lot in this lesson that I need to add to my lesson. Also I plan on doing workshops on interviewing and follow-up so This entire lesson is important for me to revisit and use when teaching.

I learned that we need to set up our career services where we post jobs. I am in a high school setting and we currently don't post jobs for the students. I usually go to the instructor to find candidates.

I learned that it isn't just saying you have a career services department and you talk to students about jobs. There is much more that goes into the process, like the Mission Statement to begin with. I never put that much thought into our office at the center. This first unit has really got me thinking how I can improve our Career Services Department.
