These slides were prepared
by the IEEE-USA Employment & Career Services Committee in an
effort to assist members in improving their resume and cover letter
writing skills. The slides also were designed to better prepare your
members for what they might expect while interviewing. These
presentations explore: What REALLY matters, appearance, behavior,
topics to avoid, questions to ask, salary negotiations and what to
do after the interview. We hope these slides will help you to help
your local section members in their job search and interviewing
skills. We would like your feedback! Please contact Scott D. Grayson
