The Professional Skills Development program was created to give college students advice, tools, and guidance to help them apply for scholarships, internships, and jobs. Students are divided into classes of 15. In this interactive program, they learn how to manage their time, write a resume/CV and cover letter, prepare for interviews, write business emails, and other essential skills.
This program is a supplement to other Paper Airplanes programs. Our students learn English by attending weekly one-on-one lessons with a native speaker. In addition, many students complete multiple courses in the Women in Tech program. Once students develop their English and technical skills, the Professional Skills Development program ensures that they are prepared to reach their educational or career goals.
In addition to weekly classes, we prepare workshops that are offered by specialists in select subjects. Topics for the workshop include how to search for jobs, what qualifications are required, and how to answer interview questions.
Our mentors follow students' progress. Students are invited to share their resume with mentors and instructors for review. Also, students are required to submit a job or college application, which mentors help with.
Students are required to attend mock interviews with professionals in their area of study or interest. The interviewers provide feedback on the student’s performance and may ask them to repeat the interview so they can improve.
