How do I ask for a date? Which bread plate is mine? At what point in a job interview can I ask about salary? Should I use a cell phone while on the T or the elevator? How can I network to find the perfect position?
Join us for MIT's 18th Annual Charm School to find out these answers and more. Participate in mini-classes on a wide variety of "charming" subjects. You may even earn your "Ch.D." (Doctoral degree in Charm). Classes are rolling, so stop by at any time during the four-hour period and stay afterwards for a networking reception to begin at 4:00pm.
