If you didn't already know, PCA applications are due this Friday, November 1. We encourage everyone to apply! We all love working at Career Services, and we know you would too! This week we will share our stories about why we chose to become PCAs. (Click here to read Shell's story from last week!)
I choose to become a Peer Career Advisor because I wanted an
experience on campus that would help me become more involved and meet new
people. I was a Junior in the College of Business anticipating on graduating in
two and a half years and I was already a member of a prominent business
organization and an avid member of UniTe.
Becoming a PCA was one of the greatest collegiate choices I
have made. I applied to meet new people,
but I learned so much about my field and about myself. As a Human Resource Management major I now
have the skills of resume writing and interviewing – two skills professionals struggle
with years within their field. I have
met peers from ALL walks of life and have learned how to professionally
communicate and network with them. I
feel a bit of satisfaction when I help one of my peers, also. Career Services is definitely a gem many UT
students overlook!
