Next Step is Your Insurance Policy For Your College Investment

You have spent four years in High School.

You’ve studied and worked hard to obtain and maintain your GPA. You’ve written papers, researched university requirements, taken PSAT and ACT exams, sent out multiple applications; all to prepare you to attend the college of your dreams… but then what?

Once in college, you’ll dedicate yourself to earning and obtaining…. A College Degree. Graduating with a degree in marketing, engineering, business, philosophy, etc. is a great accomplishment and is certainly a testimony to your fortitude and determination…

BUT THEN WHAT?

A college education is important, however it WILL NOT and DOES NOT prepare you for employment.

NextStep is a “one on One” coaching program designed for one purpose….. Landing you a career job after college!!

Coaching Programs

NextStep offers different coaching programs to suit your needs. Whether you take advantage of the four-year program as an incoming freshman or choose NextStep during your sophomore, junior or senior years, the benefits can be life changing.

Now more than ever, it is essential to begin thinking about career paths before entering the workforce.

According to a 2014 survey by the Economic Policy Institute, the unemployment rate is 8.5% and the underemployment rate is 16.8%; both percentages have increased since the last study in 2007, with no end in sight.

Major mistakes college graduates make, per a 2015 Monster.com article by Charles Purdy, include:

  • Not customizing resumes
  • Appearing unprofessional
  • Failing to network appropriately
  • Setting expectations too high

NextStep will guide you so that they know exactly what they want and how to achieve it, all while maximizing your university’s resources.

Interviewing Skills

Resume in hand, you will be more confident as you apply to your chosen opportunities. We practice how to interview effectively, including:

How to dress

Verbal and non-verbal cues

How to follow-up at a second interview

These essential life skills will always be helpful; signing up with NextStep today ensures a successful professional future.

Social Networking

Another crucial area of our personalized Game Plan is social networking – networking opportunities are the backbone of connecting with others in a chosen field for information, employment opportunities, and professional development.

One of the major mistakes graduates make is failing to utilize these networking opportunities appropriately – or at all.

We at NextStep  will show you how to connect with potential employers in a way that underscores your strengths and abilities. Sign up now in order to begin; the sooner you begin networking, the wider your network becomes!
