<Title>Dependable Strengths Workshop: Networking and Job Search</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">2 day workshop + one follow-up appointment
    Friday and Saturday, June 11-12 - Register NOW!
    
    Need answers to the big questions about where you are headed next?
    Not sure what kind of job you are interested in or how to find it?
    Are you graduating this year and lack the know-how or confidence to network?
    
    This two day workshop helps you to do all of these! Unlike other career assessments and workshops, you'll be able to assess your strengths and identify what you enjoy, things that you do well and events or experiences in which you take pride. It motivates you to succeed. Ultimately by learning more about yourself through this process, you open up new opportunities.
    The focus in this workshop is a non-traditional job search process. Through guided group discussions, participants will:
    
    * Identify what you are good at and what you love to do
    * Learn to articulate your worth to an employer
    * Learn to make contacts whenever you may want them
    * Succeed in interviews
    * Work with a support team to increase self-confidence
    
    The workshop is designed for all levels from freshmen to graduate students and alumni.
    The registration fee for current UMBC Students is $50. Details and the online registration form can be found at

<Title>How to Get Job Search Feedback You Can Use</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">If you want to find out what prospective employers think of you, don't wait till you don't get a job and then ask the recruiter for feedback. It's a litigious society, so they won't share it.
    
    The recruiter will say something generic like how much they liked you but the field was just so competitive. Furthermore, at this point, you are already closed out for the job. You can't use any feedback you do get because your next interviews will be for different jobs with different players. Instead of generic feedback received too late, you need to get personal and specific feedback that you can act upon before a decision is made.
    
    In order to do that, ask your interviewer these tough <a href="http://www.vault.com/email/NewMemberArticle3.html" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">questions</a>.</div>

<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">Full Title: Attention Rising Seniors!  New Fellowship For Aspiring Teachers of Color
    
    *  Nearly half of the nation’s students (44 percent) are students of color, but the latest data show that just one of every six teachers (16.7 percent) is a teacher of color.
        * Current trends indicate that, by 2020, the percentage of teachers of color will fall to an all-time low of 5 percent of the total teacher force, while the percentage of students of color in the system will likely exceed 50 percent.
        * In urban and rural schools nationwide, as many of half of all African-American, Latino, and Native American students do not graduate high school in four years.
        * As many as a third of students in the nation’s high-need schools have at least one or more teachers without even a minor in the subject she or he teaches.
        * Study after study shows that the single most effective way a school can improve students’ academic achievement is to consistently provide well-prepared, committed teachers.
        * Research also shows, overwhelmingly, that students of color perform better – academically, personally, and socially-when taught by teachers from their own ethnic groups.</div>

    <div class="html-content">Full Title: Attention Rising Seniors!  New Fellowship For Aspiring Teachers of Color
    
    *  Nearly half of the nation’s students (44 percent) are students of color, but the latest data show that just one of every six teachers (16.7 percent) is a teacher of color.
        * Current trends indicate that, by 2020, the percentage of teachers of color will fall to an all-time low of 5 percent of the total teacher force, while the percentage of students of color in the system will likely exceed 50 percent.
        * In urban and rural schools nationwide, as many of half of all African-American, Latino, and Native American students do not graduate high school in four years.
        * As many as a third of students in the nation’s high-need schools have at least one or more teachers without even a minor in the subject she or he teaches.
        * Study after study shows that the single most effective way a school can improve students’ academic achievement is to consistently provide well-prepared, committed teachers.
        * Research also shows, overwhelmingly, that students of color perform better – academically, personally, and socially-when taught by teachers from their own ethnic groups.</div>
