Want to know how to write a good resume? Wish you knew what to do to nail that interview? – There’s a class for that.

The top 10 things I learned from Comm 299:

10. 3 questions employers want to know: a) Can you do the job? b) Do you want the job? c) Do you fit in?

9. LinkedIn is the professional Facebook.

8. Dreams are just goals without plans.

7. Aim to be respected, rather than liked, because the latter implies the former.

6. Don’t be a fake interviewee. LISTEN.

5. Business School is darn competitive! And so is the job market.

4. (#5 being said…) Your interests and passions are your #1 competitive advantage.

3. Silence, when used effectively, is powerful.

2. The people you know today can help you get to where you want to go tomorrow. NETWORK!

1. Beeeee yourself.
