Disciplinary content knowledge and jargon can often disguise our hidden assets, skills, and talents.  Learn to distil the core transferrable competencies that many employers seek in this knowledge-based economy. Discover untapped skills from your graduate and life experiences and translate them into high-currency skills for your résumé. Come and practice translating academic and scholarly work into tangible skills that attract potential employers.

Presented by Kara Renaud, Career Services.
