I was struggling to find the time to attend a career services event, but then I discovered that there are Career Webinars on ASU's website, many of which have been recorded and saved: https://eoss.asu.edu/cs/students/webinars. I decided to watch the Go Government webinar, which is about applying for federal jobs and internships.
I have applied to some federal jobs and internships in the past, so I was interested to see what advice would come from the webinar. There was some great information about federal pay grades, how to search for federal jobs, and how to make your application stand out. There was an employee from the General Services Administration who gave some insight into their particular Pathways programs.
I already knew some of the information, but there were also some useful tips. For example, the Federal resume is expected to be much more longer and detailed than a regular resume.
It's great to know that ASU has this resource of pre-recorded webinars available, since it can be hard to find the time in our crazy work and school schedules to attend an event in person.
Thanks for this link, I was going crazy trying to set aside time for the webinars/career fairs. I didn't know the federal resume was expected to be much longer, will have to check out this webinar and see what it has to offer.
