Current Job Title: Communications Assistant

Brief description of your job: I work closely with the Employer Relations Specialist, the Graphic Designer, and the Technology and Communications Assistant to connect students with employers.

What advice do you have for current students? Try to get some kind of office experience early on because even doctors and lawyers have to know how to run a copier and fax a memo once in a while. Observe anyone who is more experienced than you closely and decide what you would like to incorporate into your own work style.
