 The School of Information Sciences Alumni Society and
Beta Phi Mu Honor Society invite all MLIS students to “LIS
Professional Development Day,” scheduled for Saturday,
March 24, 2007. The sessions, hosted by members of
the Alumni Society, will take place on the Fifth Floor
of the SIS Building from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm. Alumni
presenters will discuss common sense tips for interviewing,
writing a resume, and how to handle a telephone interview. Students
will gain practical knowledge that will improve their career
search skills.
Members of the Alumni Society will review resumes submitted
by the students, conduct mock interviews, and hold telephone
interviews. Each session will include feedback from
the Alumni presenters, based on their experiences both
as an employer and as a job seeker. Advance registration
for the sessions is limited: current MLIS students
are encouraged to register on-line at http://www.sis.pitt.edu/people/alumni/prof_days_form.html. The
deadline for registration is March 15, 2007. Students
should submit their resumes in advance to baz7@pitt.edu.
