When we feel self-conscious or embarrassed, our internal spotlight becomes a harsh critic, amplifying our perceived flaws and shortcomings. We assume that others are just as focused on these shortcomings as we are, however most people are too preoccupied with their own lives, thoughts, and insecurities to devote much attention to us. Check out this article on the spotlight effect. #spotlighteffect #shortcomings #selfawareness #selfconsciousness #collectivecollaboration

According to a 2022 poll, 49 percent of recent graduates felt underqualified for entry-level positions, and nearly three in four companies noted problems with recruiting graduates with the soft (essential) skills required to fill open roles. Career readiness is a critical component of the college experience. As much as it is a responsibility of educators and essential staff to help scholars navigate the system, it is important for scholars to prioritize their own career development and readiness. If you are a college scholar, here are some tips to help you prepare for your future:   1. Start networking: Connect with professionals in your potential sector or industry on LinkedIn, at career fairs, and during informative interviews. Building relationships with people in industry might lead to mentorship, internships and job offers.   2. Gain relevant experience: Look for internships, part-time work, or volunteer opportunities that match your career goals. Hands-on experience will not only boost your résumé, but will also help you develop valuable essential (soft) skills, as well as technical skills. Programs like The Talent Bridge (https://lnkd.in/ez7gXiDV) offer STEM related internship opportunities at startups. #talentbridge #paidinterships   3. Develop your skills: Take advantage of workshops, seminars, and online courses to enhance your knowledge and stay current about opportunities within your industry. Employers like applicants who are proactive in their professional development. Typically, your college/ university offers free events where invited guests may be from industry. The events often provide the opportunity to engage with them and many offer the opportunity to serve as a mentor, which can provide you with a huge advantage.   4. Create a strong resume and cover letter: Career services is an often-underutilized resource. Career services assists scholars with their career development and planning, such as gathering information on companies, current job openings, and hiring processes, as well as navigating the transition from school to career. They can also assist with resume and cover letter writing to help you underscore your relevant experience and talents, and highlight your successes including how they relate to the employment requirements. Programs like SCSU BioPath are a great resource for connecting scholars to workshops, resources, mentors and internships.   5. Practice interviewing: Prepare for interviews by reviewing popular interview questions, rehearsing with a friend or career counselor, and fine-tuning your answers. Achieving success in an interview requires both confidence and preparedness.   Career development is a continuous process, stay proactive and open to new opportunities. Best of luck on your #careerjourney!   #careerdevelopment #careerreadiness #collegestudents #networking #skillsdevelopment #resumetips #interviewprep #collectivecollaboration #Connecticut

Social media has become an essential resource for fund development (fundraising), allowing organizations to reach a larger audience and engage potential donors in a more personal and interactive way. Non profit organizations (specifically) can leverage platforms like Meta, Twitter (X), LinkedIn and TikTok to generate awareness around their cause, and create captivating content that highlights their impact and mission while encouraging supporters to donate. With the right strategy and appealing content, social media can be an effective tool for broadening reach, communicating with supporters, and eventually enhancing fundraising efforts #funddevelopment #nonprofit #socialmediastrategy #socialmediatips #fundraisingtips #collectivecollaboration

Central to effective leadership is effective communication and a willingness to collaborate. 5.

Don't be afraid of difficult conversations (this is where cultivation takes place and this is what will propel you to grow) 7. Be true to yourself and the goals you set for yourself. 8.
