Career Services

Determining your interests, skills and values may take some effort but it is vitally important. You have already begun this process by selecting a major which, in turn, will influence your career path; however, there should be a good match with who you are and what you will be doing. Do you seek adventure or do you like predictability? Do you enjoy interacting with others or do you prefer getting the job done? Are you more analytical or more emotional?

Many of the questions you will encounter in an interview will deal with you as a person and how well you may fit in an organization. The recruiter will not only judge if you have the necessary expertise but also assess your personality traits and attitude as to whether you will enjoy working in that particular company.

Your college experience should be a time of change and growth. You are responsible for shaping who you will become. This process should require a self assessment of both your strengths and weaknesses in determining a career path.

尽早开始这个过程将为您提供时间来探索所有选择。虽然一些学生对未来的职业很确定，但其他人可能不确定。

MUIC对文科的关注提供了广泛的学科和探索不同兴趣的机会。一些学生在上了一门他们真正喜欢的课程后改变了专业。MUIC是为数不多的泰国项目之一，您可以在开始学习后更改专业。另一个选择是选择辅修，使您能够专业化或扩大您的专业知识和技能。

您的探索还应包括可用的网络资源。职业发展部门将为您提供有趣网站的链接。您想将旅行作为未来工作的一部分吗？寻找能够提供这种可能性的行业或组织中的职位。查看不同工作的起薪也可能有助于决定您未来的职业。Adecco在其网站上免费发布了泰国薪资指南（http://www.adecco.co.th）。

Employers are seeking well-rounded individuals who can offer more than just an academic transcript. Students who participate in conferences and competitions and are actively involved in student clubs and the Student Association are at a clear advantage. Volunteering for community outreach projects is an additional asset. All of these activities demonstrate that you are motivated, responsible and dependable, traits that top organizations look for when hiring.

During this step of the process you need to organize your activities in writing and frame them in terms that demonstrate you have developed important life skills. We recommend that you attend one of our workshops in preparing your Curriculum Vitae (CV). You will have it on hand for applications to internships, summer employment or scholarships.

This is also the time to develop your interview skills. The Career Development Unit provides training workshops and the annual MUIC Job Fair allows you to engage in actual interviews. You may also have an opportunity to participate in international conference and exchange program that will require an application, a cover letter and an interview.

For those who are planning to pursue their graduate studies, this is the time to start looking at potential schools, particularly entry requirements, including exams. The best graduate schools in the world expect more than just an impressive transcript. They, too, are looking for outstanding students who have contributed to their communities and demonstrate leadership qualities.

At this stage you need to learn to market yourselves. To begin this process, you need to condense and consolidate your uniqueness, educational experience, past activities and skills by updating your CV.

If you begin early enough before graduation, you will have more opportunities to target top companies and international organizations and will be able to accept the best offer. The web is an important resource to easily target companies and learn about them.

In addition, the Career Development Unit has direct connections with a number of organizations through professional relationships and MUIC alumni.
