Students will hear perspectives on how to:
• Talk about study abroad in an interview without sounding generic
• Connect an international experience to jobs that are not always internationally focused
• Identify the skills developed abroad that employers value
• Understand the kinds of follow-up questions employers may ask
• Avoid common mistakes when discussing international experiences
• Make the most of time abroad so you return with experiences you can use professionally
Whether you have already studied abroad or are still considering it, this panel will help you think more intentionally about how an international experience can support your future career.
