Each panel member spoke about internships, current jobs, and provided tips on the job application process. They also answered questions on how many positions they applied for before landing a job, potential interview questions, and interviewing strategies. Of particular interest to students, panel participants discussed which ECU-MIS classes still help them in their everyday job and described an average day in their workplace.
