Chelsea from FAJET will be holding our first ever Resume Workshop on April 25th in aid of our Scholarship Fund!
Our Scholarship Fund helps to send one student from Fukuoka to study abroad.
Get your resumes and cover letters ready, your LinkedIn profile dusted off, and your job hunting face on because we’re going to be working on all of it!
Due to the corona virus we thought it’d be best to hold this event virtually so we can practice social distancing and stay safe during this difficult time. Please keep an eye out on the Facebook event page for further announcements.
About our Workshop Leader:
Chelsea is a second year JET who worked as a Career Prep Consultant for one year, prior to JET, at the University of Washington-Tacoma. In that role she assisted students with writing, editing, and formatting their resumes, CV’s, cover letters, held mock interviews, facilitated events, and was part of hiring for various positions on campus. Many of these events included career fairs for tech jobs/in the health field or humanities related positions. Prior to JET Chelsea worked in a primarily office setting in higher education and has a large network to draw experience from.
What to prepare:
• Have your resume/CV ready to edit (If you don’t have one that’s okay)
• Have Zoom downloaded and ready
• Notes (if you desire to do so)
• Those who have their resume/CV/cover letter ready will be asked to submit it to the Google Classroom link which will provided via email on April 25th at 6am.
Time: 11:30am – 12:30pm
Platform: Zoom*
Price: 1000¥ (+ bank transfer fee)
We will give our instructions for this closer to the time.
All proceeds will be donated to our Scholarship Fund.
*Notes regarding use of Zoom
We have been closely watching the situation with Zoom and are aware of the concerns surrounding the application. Due to the volume of participants and ease of use, we have determined at this time that Zoom is still the best on the market to use for this event.
