Know behavior styles and ACE your interview!

Everyone has a different communication and listening style. You may think you “nailed” an interview, but chances are they thought you were from a different planet!

By participating in this webinar, you will learn to quickly identify four primary behavior styles that affect how people communicate and listen.

This is the fourth in a series of nine webinars on job search techniques for the graduate.  It is Wednesday, April 13, from noon to 1 p.m. in the Career Services office. Mark your calendar for these other webinar dates!

April 20: Susan Whitcomb, Twitter
April 27: Mark Goulston, Listening
May 4: Devora Zack, Networking
May 11: Peter Weddle, Career Strategy
