Did you know? 70% of employers participating in the Job Outlook 2026 survey reported using skills-based hiring rather than focusing on degrees or GPA. It’s important for students to know how to appeal to employers with their skill set.

Encourage students to join us for our Skills-Based Hiring workshop to learn how employers are shifting from degree-focused to skills-focused hiring and how they can prepare for the change.

At this workshop, students will learn how to 🔍 identify, 🧠 articulate, and ✨️ showcase their skills on resumes, applications, and interviews so they can stand out and compete confidently in today’s job market.

📅 Wednesday, September 16
