Introduction to Career Research
Students will see a demonstration on the use of library databases for finding information on organizations and industries. The demonstration will focus on pitching business and market research techniques for researching future careers. As this is a pitch presentation, it does not require a computer lab or portable computing. The librarian may engage students using online polls and smartphones at their discretion.
After this workshop, students will be able to:
- Recognize that research is a component of finding work in a given career
- Recall that business and industry research is possible via library databases
