Teacher Tips

This unit can be expanded to integrate a mentorship. Ask employers or human resource managers in your area to participate with the interviews and provide leads for mentorship opportunities. Professionals participating in interviews can use webcams so they do not have to come to the school when their time is limited.

Many universities have online examples and assistance in developing resumes, cover letters, and other documents that support a career portfolio. You or the students can search for examples you think best suit the kind of work your students are preparing to do through this inquiry.
