• Resumen

  • The purpose of this experiential exercise is to help undergraduate business students grow as future professionals by learning about, researching, and practicing pursuing realistic entry-level jobs in business. This type of job researching and evaluating exercise is extremely valuable for the professional growth of students in that it helps set realistic and attainable goals before graduation, and in addition, provides clear direction on what kinds of educational backgrounds, work experiences, professional qualifications, and personal intangibles are needed to obtain positions in areas of management. This exercise is intended to be conducted ideally within a face-to-face classroom environment and is designed for undergraduate students in their second or third academic year in a business principles type course. This exercise can also relate well to a “Human Resource Management” course or “Professional Development Seminar”.
