This episode is focused on helping college seniors move into their first job.  Thomas Goonan shares how to use a career center, professors and job boards.  He discusses how to make networking less of a dreadful activity, practicing for your telephone and in-person interview and using the S (situation), T (task), A (action) and R (results) in developing your story tool box to answer answer questions. 

Thomas shares that these are not normal times and that people are going to be stressed out during their job search - to recognize that this is normal.  But, he stresses, you have skills, character and a lot to offer so stay focused on your search activities.

He leaves us with these key reminders:

• be confident - you are a young professional that employers are looking for
• build honest connections - be real and genuine and you will find your network
• ok to be stressed - your strengths will help guide you to the opportunities that are out there

I hope you enjoy this episode - please share it with new or soon to be graduates.
