Feedback Great idea to create a [career] series! This should be considered with all PLAN programs. I learned both the how and the why of creating the CV and the resume. Great perspective on graduate writing and tools offered. I really liked learning more about writing goals and obstacles to time management [and] the advice to make a backwards timeline. Great discussion of the benefits of peer mentoring and tools to start a program. I saw an excellent interview and great discussion afterward.
