Get Hired! Week of November 3, 2025

Looking for work, your first job, or experience in your field of study?

Get Hired shares new postings and events every week to help you find opportunities that match your goals and schedule.

Tip of the Week: Prepare Your Professional References

Keep a list of three professional references ready when applying for jobs. Employers often ask for someone who has supervised you, such as a past employer, volunteer coordinator, or professor.

If you have limited work experience, consider including: a professor, volunteer supervisor, or mentor who knows your reliability, teamwork, and work ethic. Always ask permission before listing anyone.
