EMPOWER along with SU’s Graduate Careers Office and the Engineering Graduate Student Office hosted STEM Career Service’s Josh Henkin on October 24th & 25th  for a series of workshops. Thursday’s workshops were open to all graduate students on campus and several hundred took advantage of the opportunity to attend first-class professional development training sessions delivered by a current STEM hiring manager. Friday’s workshops were developed just for EMPOWER trainees and began with “Creating a Powerful Resume – Inside Tips from a Hiring Manager” in the morning followed by “Perfect Pitch and Scoring the Initial Interview” in the afternoon. Dr. Henkin also met with eight trainees 1-on-1 to review their current CV’s or resumes and to do strategic career planning.
