This week in ISM I participated in the Business Symposium. Through it, I gained great insight into the professionalism realm. I learned that our dreams are like a GPS, constantly getting rerouted by road blocks, but in the end we will always get to where we are supposed to be. I also grew professionally this week, as at the Business Symposium I did quite a bit of networking. I met students from different high schools and connected with them on LinkedIn to create even more possible connections in the future. Moreover, I learned some great ways to stand out from the crowd when going into interviews. I learned that I should wear something a little bit more colorful or with a pattern to distinguish myself from my peers. This is something I never really considered before, but I think is an easy way to establish who I am as opposed to everyone else, but I am still a little weary of this advice, as I am not sure if it follows suit with what is deemed as “professional clothing.” Overall, this week I was successful in that I built genuine relationships, and also acquired valuable knowledge I can use in all aspects of my life.
