Seminar Description:
Want to learn how to describe the work you have done?  Answer the interview question, “tell me what you have accomplished?” Write a cover letter that puts your strengths into words?  Dr. Judith Katz will help you understand how to develop and use a PAR to identify and discuss your achievements, determine your competencies, and help to plan a career path. A PAR is an accomplishment statement that begins with a problem, followed by an action, and shows the result.  These statements can help you to focus on your strengths in developing your CV or resume, writing cover letters, and preparing for interviews.
