Help Your College Student Beat the Odds and Launch a Successful Career

More than 50% of college graduates today take jobs that don't require a college degree—and most remain underemployed even a decade later. Meanwhile, graduates who land college-level jobs earn 50% more than their peers. The first job after graduation matters more than ever, yet most families focus entirely on getting into a good college without thinking about how to get out successfully.

Whether your child attends UT, Texas A&M, SMU, TCU, or another school, this workshop reveals the five most important factors that actually determine career outcomes after graduation—and what you as a parent can do to help.

What You'll Learn:

• Why choice of major and internships matter more than the college they attended for career outcomes and earnings

• How completing just one internship cuts underemployment risk nearly in half (yet fewer than 1/3 of students do one)

• How to guide your child in building a strong candidate profile: resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn

• Practical networking strategies that start in your own family network and expand from there

• The critical interviewing and communication skills most young people lack—and how to develop them

You'll leave with a clear action plan and practical steps you can start using right away, whether your child is in high school, college, or recently graduated.
