Don't go yet there’s more, and this is incredibly manageable. You may have already seen the additional resources available on Handshake and the CAPD website, but let me point out some specific resources that can come in handy all throughout your time at MIT:
The CAPD Handbook - A book that provides great tools to help you navigate your career. Through 70 pages, we have tools to help you choose a major, write a resume, prepare for an interview, and more. You can get a handbook when you come for an appointment with a career advisor. However, we also have these same resources right on our website when you go to the Resources & Advice page.
Survey Data - If you're curious about your peers, CAPD collects information about summer experiences and post-graduation plans. I highly recommend that you review this information to help you think about different pathways you would consider for your career trajectory.
Guided Assessments - CAPD staff can also help you navigate other assessment tools. There are staff members trained in the MBTI, Strengths Finder, and the Strong Interest Inventory. To learn more about guided assessment, visit our website.
