What I Did Today

Today, I had my check-in with Devin and Carrie, and got some great ideas from them. I polished my first elective by fixing the formatting and using wrapping. I finished my second elective, but I want to make it look a bit nicer tomorrow. Then we joined a super cool Zoom meeting, learning how to schedule them.

What I Did Today

Today at CTP, I worked on posting job listings for the website. I found a variety of opportunities in several different locations that participants may be interested in applying for. I continue to improve my research skills when looking for job openings and have become more confident in how I format and post the listings. I also reached out to Carrie for additional guidance on IT-related job postings so I could better understand what to look for when researching opportunities for participants interested in the IT field. Overall, it was a productive day, and I’m pleased with the progress I’m making in strengthening my research and job-posting skills.
