Gets You Going

Welcome to your first cup of Career Coffee. A coffee cup, you say? What’s with the metaphor?

Well, we debated a lot of titles. “Career Memo” – too boring. “Career Catsup” – too random. The idea is a mini-magazine, with no lectures, no announcements, no exhortations to attend our events (though we hope you do).

These will be articles you can sip casually, savor some tips and humor, and perhaps get a jolt towards a career, a job, a promotion.

Who are “we,” anyway? The author isn’t using the “royal we” from some delusion of grandeur. We are the staff of Wichita State Career Services, and we’ll work together to brew up issues and answer your most embarrassing career questions.

So, please holler at us with questions and feedback. Shoot emails to career.services@wichita.edu and say what you want to hear.

A few ideas already are percolating: How to Talk to Strangers (yes, we’re all grown up, it’s okay now); How to Pick a Major (decisions!! augh!!!); How to Dress Without Looking or Feeling Like an Idiot (been there, done that, got the leopard-print blouse…)

It’s going to be a fun year.
