Experiential Learning

Please indicate the areas that you would like to assist in student experiential learning (check all that apply):

Advice about profession:
CREW is constantly seeking to better understand and meet employer needs. Often times CREW and/or students have brief questions that can often be addressed via email and the answers assist us in adjusting our career counseling practices to better meet our employer’s needs. We are seeking professional to serve as contact for this purpose. (Example Questions: What computer skills do you want potential employees to have? What information is most important for a potential employee to highlight in a resume?
Co-op and Internships:
Internships are a great training and testing ground both for the employer and the student. Internships vary in the amount of pay, academic credit offered, type of supervision, mentoring you receive, length of your work appointment, and the amount of learning you will do.
Informational Interviews:
Students are encouraged to learn as much as possible about their career field they intend to pursue. Informational interviewing is an opportunity for students to learn first hand about a particular career by speaking with someone who works in the profession. CREW is seeking professionals who are willing to take 15-20 minutes to answer a student’s questions about work tasks, work environment, educational background, and how you obtained your current position.
Job Shadowing:
CREW encourages students to learn first-hand information about the profession they are interested in pursuing. Job Shadowing is an excellent opportunity for students to gain an understanding of the world of work while at the same time network with professionals in their field of interest. CREW is looking for professionals to volunteer their time to be matched with students interested in their field for a job shadowing opportunity.
Mock Interviews:
CREW holds an annual mock interview fair in which students sign up to practice interviewing skills with an employer. We are looking for professionals who are willing to volunteer their time to interview students and then provide feedback on ways in which the students can improve their interviewing skills. Mock Interviews require approximately a 2 hour time commitment once or twice a year.
