Limited to 25 participants

Do you know what you want to do when you leave MIT (or for the summer), but not sure what companies do that type of work?   Do you want to work in a specific part of the world?  Don’t you wish there was just a list of companies you might be interested in, including vital statistics about that company?  Come learn how to use article databases and other resources to reveal the secrets that you might be missing from your job or internship search.  Participants are asked to bring their own laptop or tablet as Career Services, in collaboration with the MIT Libraries, will go step by step and teach how these effective tools can provide information that may be the key to finding the right company or organization for you.

This workshop will take place in 14N-132, the Digital Instruction Resource Center (DIRC): http://libraries.mit.edu/ask-us/instruction/where-dirc.html.
