APPLYING TO OPPORTUNITIES Once you have perfected your Career Toolkit and done your research to identify roles / companies of interest to you, it is time to start applying! There’s no magic number of opportunities to apply to. Only apply to opportunities that you would have a legitimate interest in. Continue submitting applications until you have accepted an offer. PLEASE NOTE: While applying to positions is key step in the internship / job search process, applying alone will likely not lead to success. The internship / job market is competitive…and think about how many people can view and apply to a position when it is posted publically. Making connections at companies of interest greatly increases your chances of landing an interview. See pages 2829 for tips on identifying potential contacts via LinkedIn. Handshake
