Why Attend?

If you have trouble telling your story in a clear and concise way, we promise you that you aren’t alone. How are you supposed to get across your whole career story in just a few seconds, or on a single sheet of paper?

Even if you are confident in your pitch and resume, it’s extremely eye-opening to get feedback from different recruiters, and to get inspired by the feedback you’ll hear other attendees receive as well.

At this event you’ll learn to:

• Have a response ready when someone says “tell me about yourself”
• Fit your entire resume onto one page
• Create a resume and cover letter that will stand out to recruiters
• Pitch yourself in interviews, at events, or in an actual elevator with confidence
• Answer tough interview questions by practicing in a pressure-free environment

How it Works:

• Reps from top NYC companies will answer your questions on what they look for in job and internship applications during a brief panel.
• Then, you’ll break off into small groups and practice answering interview questions and review your resume with those reps and your peers.
• Not only will you benefit from practice and feedback, but you’ll be able to hear how your peers answer and the feedback they get.
• You’ll have time to network with all our speakers and your incredible peers, ask your own career questions, and get to know the FindSpark community.
