Career & Internship Readiness Conference
|
|
In the morning workshops, Career Development Center (CDC) staff spoke to students about choosing careers based on strengths and interests. Students also learned about the "elevator pitch": how to introduce themselves in a concise, but "catchy" manner. The afternoon included three breakout activities, again, facilitated by our colleagues from CSULB's CDC:
- Mock Interviews
- Setting Up a LinkedIn Profile
- Dress for Success
|
|
Thanks to CaLL's volunteer recruitment, 41 industry professionals, representing a broad array of industries and careers, interviewed students, allowing them to practice their interview skills and get feedback about their performance.
We would like to thank all the mock interviewers for volunteering their time to provide such a meaningful experience. Amazingly, the volunteers also thanked CaLL for what they described as, "a wonderful opportunity for us, as well as for the students."

Long Beach CaLL Summer Internship Program
|
Make the CaLL!
Long Beach CaLL is excited to explore
ANY
opportunity to work with employers who would consider participating in its Summer 2018 Internship Program. With almost two months of business recruitment remaining, we are excited to report that we have already signed up more participating companies than than we had by June of last year! However, we also have more qualified students seeking internships than ever before!
So, we are looking for additional businesses to help us meet the high demand of students requesting internships. CaLL makes the process easy for employers and will ensure a highly qualified student intern.
If you are interested in hosting an intern this summer, click on the link below and fill out a quick form. We will follow up with you with additional information. You can also click
here
to visit our website and request an intern, using internship descriptions tailored to your industry.
Can't take an intern, but want to help Long Beach students?
Please forward this
flyer
to any colleague, friend, or family member in the Long Beach area who you think would be interested in hosting a student intern this summer,
OR
Donate to CaLL's fund for internship stipends. While CaLL strives to identify paid internship positions, some employers, especially non-profit organizations, cannot afford to pay an intern. By making a tax-deductible contribution to CaLL, you could make it possible for a student, who must earn money over the summer, to accept an unpaid internship, opening a career door for a young person that might otherwise be closed. Typical internship stipends range from $500-$1,000.
To make a contribution, click on the button below, or call Jean Egan, Long Beach CaLL Executive Director, at 562-997-8291 for additional information.
