Unfortunately, I was unable to attend any live zoom meetings but was extremely grateful to have the recordings and google docs to view at my convenience. I also enjoyed participating in the flipgrid with 2 truths and a dream!
My favorite zoom session was the resume presentation. Since I’ve been employeed for a number of years, I am “out of date” with current resume practices. I loved the tips and recommendations and really appreciated the google docs available to use in the future.
I also enjoyed the library director’s panel. Everyone speaking was very down to earth and I loved their truthfulness (the “no-no’s” of things they look for while interviewing were terrific!). The tips given were very helpful, such as, including participating in a mentorship because that means you are “teachable” and also having some volunteer hours and professional development other than college courses in your experience.
Given current situations and having to have a virtual summer institute instead of “in person”, I feel it was done well and was still effective at helping all of us in the program!
