\"bootcamp\"By Hannah Hecht–<\/strong>Are you looking to fill the void in your heart left by the cancellation of classes on Tuesday, Feb. 4? Do you stare at the graduation date on your calendar and wonder if you have the skills to survive in a world outside the boundaries of Peters and Garretson Avenue?<\/p>\n

Well, look no further than Life after College Boot Camp Part II, a morning of seminars built to maximize your success after graduation.<\/p>\n

Morningside College career counselor Stacie Hays has put together this event for the past two years. \u201cThe event offers a little bit of everything,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s a great opportunity for students to learn necessary things that they may not learn otherwise.\u201d<\/p>\n

The topics for the \u201cboot camp\u201d offer sessions in the Yockey room focused on teaching Morningside students a mix of essential skills for the college graduate. Sessions will take place in the morning and include:<\/p>\n

9:00- Behavioral Based Interviewing with Mary Zink
\n9:45- 30 by 30 with Morningside alums Mitchell Schultze and Drake Johnson
\n10:15- How to Search for a Job as a Student with Morningside alum Margo Stanforth
\n11:00- Career Connections with Sioux City Go
\n11:45- Student Loans with the Morningside Financial Aid Department<\/p>\n

Hays said she is also particularly excited about the Behavioral Based Interviewing session. \u201cMary Zink\u2019s session will be really useful,\u201d she said. \u201cA lot of times, people think that they know how to behave in interviews, but then they freeze up when they get there. The Behavioral Based Interviewing session helps you learn a lot of tips and tricks to use in interviews.\u201d<\/p>\n

She also thinks that Morningside students with student loans ought to attend the Student Loans seminar. \u201cWe\u2019ll start off as a group, but then students will be able to break off and talk with financial aid staff about their own personal loans and financial plans,\u201d Hays said.<\/p>\n

Students planning to attend the seminars must send an RSVP email to Hays (hays@morningside.edu<\/a>) by Friday, January 31 and specify which sessions they\u2019d like to attend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
