My Comm 299 experience has been one of the most hands-on and practical one yet. Although some topics may seem like “common sense” but this course has really refined the techniques such as how to shake hands properly. I also appreciated how there were easy step-to-step guidelines for resumes, cover letters, and interviews. At first I was overwhelmed but when the powerpoint slides and my TA has really broken down the concepts for me to complete them. This course gives me a huge advantage over other students who haven’t taken Comm 299 because I have learned the actual process of getting a job. However, in order to get that initial job, you would need to appropriately showcase your skills and what you have done during your university life. I’m very glad that I am taking this course and, overall, I have learned how to market myself in the best way possible.
