This Fall, the Waterloo Engineering Society will be introducing exciting new services designed specifically for First-Year Engineering students. These services will include a new mentorship program which will pair incoming students with an Upper Year mentor who will act as their guide throughout the term. The First-Year students and their mentors will be invited to participate in several social activities, such as a “Whose Line is it Anyway?” event, and several academic success events, such as discussions on how to succeed during Midterms and Finals. If you would like sign-up to have a First-Year Mentor, please visit: http://bit.ly/froshmentor and complete the registration form.
Certain services will also be returning during the Fall Term, notably Resume Critiques, where First-Year students can have their resume critiqued by an Upper-Year student, to ensure they appear desirable to potential employers. The Resume Critiques Directors will also be hosting Interview Skills Sessions in order to help First-Year students prepare for their first interviews.
