What I Did Today 2-20-26

I watched a video by a LinkedIn expert and learned a lot about working on my page professionally. I also learned about ChatGPT and how to use it to improve my resume. Lastly, I participated with our group on a discussion about common job interview questions.

What I Did Today

Today was my second day as an intern, and I kicked it off by clocking in on Homebase and sending a cheerful Good morning to everyone in our group on Telegram.

My first task of the day, which I’ll be doing every workday, is posting job listings on the CTP website. Today, I focused on entry-level Admin, Customer Service, and IT positions. I’m hopeful that these opportunities will help CTP participants take steps toward finding meaningful work.

After posting the jobs, I turned my attention to an assignment for Carrie. A business outreach project. I spent some time researching and gathering reliable email contacts, making sure to find the best email channels to reach out to the companies on the project list.

Overall, it was a productive day, and I’m excited to keep learning and contributing as the internship continues.
