The Female Graduates' Affairs Commission of the faculty of Arts and Education of King Khalid University, headed by Professor Fatima Shaya (a lecturer at Pedagogy and Curriculum Department), prepared a table that included all the courses that are being offered during the second semester of the academic year 1435/1436 AH. The purpose of the action was to inform the graduates on how to look for a job. Last Monday, the first course titled 'strategies to get a job and how to write a CV and pass a personal interview', was presented in the presence of 53 students from all sections of the Faculty.
The course aimed at the graduates of the first semester, who are expected to graduate this semester (the academic year 1435/1436 AH). In addition, the course was in line with the keenness of the faculties of Arts and Education Deanship to communicate with alumni and recruiters.
The course began with a workshop in which Ms. Fatima Ali Shaya presented and publicized a detailed explanation for the unit, and the importance of these courses to prepare graduates for the labor market. Then Ms. Arwa Awad Al Mohsna (a lecturer at Pedagogy and Curriculum Department) spoke about all the axes of the course; from identification of the target, to the career purpose, to relationship building, in addition to how to prepare a resume and a personal interview, and how to pass an interview. Al Mohsna provided examples of good and bad resumes.
The course witnessed a great turnout with so many questions asked, and inquiries about the difference between a Cover Letter and a CV. All inquiries were answered, and models for some of the questions that can be asked during an interview were distributed too. At the end of the course, questionnaires were distributed to evaluate the course. As well, distribution of attendance certificates for all attendees followed.
On their parts, the attendees expressed their admiration of the course, and further thanked those who were in charge for touching their needs. The attendees demanded similar extra courses to help them improve themselves. The names of a number of late students, who show their desire to attend the course in its next schedule ( 16, 17 /6 / 1436 AH ) were registered.
