The DPS will offer a Job Hunting Skills and Career Resources Workshop,
Sunday, July 27, 1997, prior to the start of the annual DPS meeting.
It is free of charge to all attendees.  The workshop will cover a wide
range of tools needed by a job seeker with a background in planetary
sciences.  There are increasingly fewer job opportunities in the
academic areas.  Today, scientists need placement skills and career
information to compete strongly in a more diversified jobs arena.  The
workshop will cover such topics as:
        How to Prepare an Effective Resume;
        Interviewing Skills;
        Networking to uncover employment;
        Job Search Skills;
        Clarifying Expectations;
        Diverse Options;
        and more.
Each workshop participant will receive a package of career development
materials. The Workshop will be presented by Ed Goldin of the American
Institute of Physics, and will be held on Sunday, July 27 from 9:00
a.m. to 12:00 p.m. in the Kresge Little Auditorium on the MIT campus.
Individual conferences will be held from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.  For
more information, contact the American Institute of Physics, Career
Services Division, (tel.) 301-209-3190 or (e-mail) csv@aip.org.
