Tip of the Week: Be Open to Different Types of Roles

Your summer job does not have to be perfect. Focus on opportunities that help you build skills and gain experience, even if they are not directly related to your field.

What you are building while you do this

This is more than asking questions. It is how you start building skills you will use in your experiences.

  • When you stay open to new opportunities, that is Adaptability.
  • When you learn through experience, that is Lifelong Learning.

These are competencies you can later recognize and reflect on through your experiences.
