What I have learned is that we have to live by the mission of our department! The out comes of our students is what measures our success as a department and a school. I learned that each and every students is an individual and needs to be treated that way, each person comes to school with different desires and strengths. Have a good library of job search material is important to the out come of the student.
What I can do is have a placement department book. I get all the externship info but I have not put it in a book, I have it in a file on my computer, so this is a great thing it will be accessable all the time. Also having a good with possible leads, this is also a good Idea, I have them on my computer but again having them at our finger tips is great.
I feel that getting support from each department is essential for the overall success of the placement department. I feel that in the department I work at I get support from all of the departments. This is a team effort.
