Hearing Proves Imperative of Tax Reform

A Senate hearing on Apple's tax bill proves the point: America's tax system is broken.

Subject: Online resource to help you succeed at your first job

I would like to share a new, free online course with you that I believe is a helpful career-building resource, JobSTART 101: Smart Tips and Real-World Training.The course is geared towards college students and recent college graduates entering the workforce, and introduces the professional skills necessary for entry-level employees to succeed in today’s workplace.

JobSTART 101 was developed by executives responsible for recruiting, hiring and training college graduates at America’s leading corporations. The course introduces six critical professional skills including problem solving, developing a professional persona and building workplace relationships. These types of skills are essential to meeting employer expectations and driving your future career.

JobSTART 101 is an invaluable resource for practical, real-world training as you prepare to transition from campus to the workforce. The course is now available online at www.jobstart101.org. If you have any questions regarding the course and the topics it covers, please do not hesitate to contact one of our career counselors.

Sincerely,
