Third year Commerce student, Sharique Haider Khan speaks about his job search experience,
“In my first year I found the job search process extremely difficult. I applied to 50+ positions but only received a couple interviews. Seeing as there was an obvious need to improve upon my job search strategy, I sought MCS services for help. From their feedback and advice I was able to focus my job search on the industry and ideal companies where I wanted to work. I treated job hunting like a job in itself. I spend a few hours every day doing research, (understanding the needs of companies and the qualifications in a model candidate) as well as networking in person and through Linked In. My efforts and my applications were more focused and effective. Developing my job search strategy not only helped me land a great co-op position, but these skills will surely be beneficial throughout my working career.”
