Comments after the Training
I need to clean up my online persona – I have pictures out there I’d rather not be public!
It helped me fix what was wrong with my resume.
I found things when I “googled” myself that surprised me!
Made me realize that everyone on a team has a different personality but can still contribute
It reminded me how important basic grammar and etiquette are!
I noticed how people acted – what worked and what didn’t. I don’t think I would have caught it if I didn’t actually have learned it.
Now I know How I need to be prepared – do my research, dress appropriately, and act professionally if I want to get and keep my job.
I understand I need to speak up and not assume that people will know I am qualified just by looking at me or reading my resume.
