As the saying goes, an MIT education is like trying to drink from a fire hose. But don't let the day-to-day pressure of assignments and classes prevent you from thinking, dreaming and planning for what you will do after MIT. You should be continually involved in career planning and development.
What you do at MIT should be shaped by what you'd like to do after MIT. In your admissions essay, you wrote about your plan to be a scientist, an engineer, an architect, a doctor. Use your time at MIT to explore and experience different fields.
You also need to develop the skills to get a job. Whether you are looking for your first internship, a summer job, or you are seeking a position after graduation, the steps are similar. You can get help with job searches, resumes and interviews, as well as information on other topics from on-line tools, tips, workshops, and personal counseling.
