Becoming Career Ready is a process that involves developing career competencies. Employers tell us that career competencies are important in their new college hires. Your experiences at UConn and beyond offer many opportunities to enhance these career readiness competencies. Learn about career competencies, and how to intentionally build them while you are an undergraduate. Hear from alum/employer, Ashley Gittens (CLAS ’20), Senior Associate at RightClick, who will tell you about personal experiences of developing career competencies throughout college, and how the competencies are valued in the recruiting process, and for workplace success.
