The ability to recognize and articulate how these experiences are helping you develop the competencies employers are seeking will help you in all stages of your career development process.

Likewise, the ability to articulate your competencies on your resume, in cover letters, on graduate school applications, in interviews, and in conversations with alumni/employers will help employers see the value you can add to their organization.

The following are the eight competencies employers are most seeking in their entry-level candidates:

The individual demonstrates integrity and ethical behavior, acts responsibly with the interests of the larger community in mind, and is able to learn from his/her mistakes.

What you need to turn in:

Using the Career Development Plan worksheet, found on CANVAS, connect your jobs, internships, campus involvement, and academics to the eight competencies employers are seeking. This will help you to recognize and articulate the value of your experiences in resumes, cover letters, graduate school applications, interviews, and conversations with alumni/employers.  This will also help you identify competencies that you need to continue developing.

Then answer the three goal setting questions at the bottom of the Career Development Plan worksheet where you can identify next steps or actions to move forward in the career development process.

Things to consider when answering the goal setting questions:

· Your goals should identify a specific action on your part that will take place.  Don’t simply create a wish list.  Also, be specific!

· Your goals should be quantifiable.

· Your goals should state the time period in which they will be accomplished.  A good list will include short-term (next semester) and long-term (next year) goals.

· Your goals should be attainable given the available resources.
