Scenario: Student: "I applied for some jobs interviewing at the Consortium and I went back into the Consortium site to check on my applications. Some of them were marked 'offline.' I'm a little nervous that my materials didn't get sent in! Is there a way for me to check? What should I do?"
Write your answers down and place them in your folder. Same as last week. Let's review the question from last week... A student emails nhcdc and explains that he is feeling under the weather and will have to cancel his appointment for 11:30 with Kelly. You then go to the main calender and you: a.) Delete his appointment. b.) Ignore the email, Kelly will take care of it. c.) Categorize the appointment to red. d.) Forward the email to Brittany. The answer is... drum roll... a.) Delete his appointment. Of course, it is always appreciated to let Kelly, Bridget and myself know if an appointment cancels. An appointment is categorized red if the student is a no show. Red=Rude. Good way to remember that!

CDCer,
I have a few things to put on your radar... 1.) Consortium Deadline for Students- The deadline for students who wish to apply for jobs and internships is Sunday, February 22nd at 11:59 pm. 2.) Drop-Box- Any materials dropped off after Wednesday at 6:00pm will not be ready for pick-up by Friday. 3.) Drop-In Hours/Quick Counsel- There will be drop-ins all day on Friday. We ask that students have hard copies of all materials they wish to be reviewed. Drop-In Hours are as follow: 10-12- Consortium Only 12-1- Quick Counsel 2-4- Consortium Only 4.) Newhouse Alumni Survey- If you receive an email about an alumni survey or any questions regarding a survey, please forward them to Kelly. 5.) Allen Rosenshine Minority Education & Training Fund- Most of you should have read something about this in CDCNews; however if student comes in or email inquiring about an minority internship opportunity please direct them to me. If for some reason I am not available, please give them my card. -Brittany CDCers-
It's time for another rendition of Weebly Pop Quiz! The scenario is: A student emails nhcdc and explains that he is feeling under the weather and will have to cancel his appointment for 11:30 with Kelly. You then go to the main calender and you: a.) Delete his appointment. b.) Ignore the email, Kelly will take care of it. c.) Categorize the appointment to red. d.) Forward the email to Brittany. Please explain your answer on a sheet of paper and then place it in your orange folder. Hand your folder in when you are ready. Let's go over the last quiz. The scenario was: An alumna TRF major from 2013 calls and would like to set-up an appointment. Since her internship ended last fall, she decided that radio may not be her thing. She would like to know the steps she should take towards getting a job at a news station in Boston. You wisely ask her if she has taken the Job Hunt Marathon while she was a student at Newhouse. She has not and you make a note of it for Bridget on her phone appointment window. You have a closing shift and you are sending out appointment reminders. You come to the TRF alumna. What are your next steps? This was a little bit tricky. Some of you seasoned CDC vets remember last spring when seniors and grad students came into the office to sign-up for post grad service. If you recall you handed them a purple book called Making It a Reality. For alum that call and did not attend a JHM, we like to give them as much information from the seminar as possible, so we send them the pdf version of the booklet. If you are sending the pdf version with a seminar reminder, write a little note that states something like: "I am attaching some literature that I feel may be useful for your appointment with Bridget. If you have some time before your phone call please read through." To get to the pdf version follow these steps: Common Folder > Publications and Cards > Make It a Reality > 2014 (or latest version) > MIAR 2014 Keep reading Weebly, Brittany And remember... Pop Quiz!!! When you see this post, explain to me what you would do in this scenario:

What are your next steps? ***Ask about our appointment cards and missed appointment email*** CDCers, Just checking in to make sure you all take the time to read these posts. They may not always be exciting, but it's information I have to put out. Would you be able to pass a quiz?!? I also have a quick post today... I'm sure you are all aware that the Mac computers have a mind of their own lately and I am working on getting them cleaned up and updated. Until then, you can help by not letting students print off their resume and cover letters. We are not a computer lab and the Macs are packed with student saved materials. So when someone asks the answer is... Just kidding... Be nice about it!
