Blog 3: Career Service Write-Up

I attended the ASU job fair this week, which presented many opportunities for full-time employment. I have bene proactive in looking for a job, so when the internship ends, hopefully I can carry everything I have learned into a full time position. The job fair consisted of many different employers from a diverse group of occupations. I personally talked with five different employers, 2 in which I felt would be a great fit for myself. Those two were Health Service Advisory Group and The Office of the Auditor General.

The Office of the Auditor General consisted of positions that obviously involve auditing. Although, this would be completely new to me, I feel that my current work at the internship can be a great building block for some of the work that I would be performing at this job. Health Service Advisory Groups, also known as HSAG, has a project coordinator position open, which I feel would suit me well. I received my bachelor's from NIU in healthcare administration and now I am working on my master's in public administration at ASU. I feel that these degrees and the work experience from my healthcare internship and current internship at CSA would bring success working as a project coordinator. The woman I spoke with took notice in all the research experience I have and said that I would be working more on the analytical research side of the things, if all works out.

Overall, this was an awesome networking event that ASU held for their students. I was able to meet with several people and have really good discussion about employment opportunities. I look forward to reconnecting with these individuals in the future!
