Librarian's Lecture & Career Counseling

On the last INT95 lecture, the librarian came to give us a presentation on the resources in the library and a little bit of introduction of herself. I think it is great that she works at a place that she has always been exposed to and a place that she loves to be in. One of the interesting services that she introduced is the twenty-four hour online chat. I find that service is very useful and helpful, and I will definitely utilize that service whenever I have a problem researching for my papers. After these past two lectures, I am fascinated by the two guest speakers. I wish I have that kind of passion toward my occupation in the future. Both of the speakers devote most of their lives in their career, and they love their jobs.



On last week’s INT section, we went on a tour to the counseling resource room. I picked up many of the flyers that I am interested in, especially the accounting internship flyer. In addition to the resources they provided at the office, I was informed that there is going to be an on campus job fair. I am thinking about getting a job on campus. After the appointment with the staffs at the career services building, I have learned that the counseling resource room is not only for jobs search, but also internships opportunities and resources for graduate school. I have also learned that UCSB will assist students finding jobs for 3 months after they graduate. I find this tour very helpful, because now I know who and where to go to if I want to know more about job opportunities and graduate school.

  1. Melody, thanks for reminding me about the online chat! I completely forgot about that part of the lecture, which is going to be SUPER helpful for research papers say, like the one I have due next week... haha

    I agree. In my blog I had a whole extra paragraph (that I deleted because the blog was getting way too long) about how these lectures inspire me to persue my career goals in ucsb. I have the same kind of happiness in my career choice as they do!

    Again, thanks for reminding me about the awesome program in the career center which helps you find a job for up to 3 months after graduating. I will also definitely utilize that to try to get me a job as soon as possible!
