Description
Summary:It's hard to imagine any task that doesn't require effective communication. Whether it's convincing your parents to extend your curfew for a special event, appealing to your teacher to reconsider a grade, charming a college admissions counselor, or promoting yourself to a potential employer ... the ability to effectively express yourself, verbally as well as in writing, in a clear and concise manner is necessary. A Student's Guide to Communication and Self-Presentation examines the importance of being able to communicate successfully as well as what to think about when presenting oneself. It touches on where we learn these important skills and how they play a critical role throughout our entire lives. This video will also review the process of asking for letters of recommendation, creating an 'elevator pitch' when networking, and effective interviewing and writing skills.
