This was a great session to push me to start doing what I know I need to do. Outreach and networking does not come naturally for me but it will be absolutely necessary for me to start a job.

For Mod 3, I'm going to

  1. Find a mentor by reaching out to Turing mentors and try to connect. I'm also going to reach out to old friends or acquantances (who I perhaps haven't kept up as much as I would like) in the technology field to catch up and see what think of my path and where I should be headed.

  2. Over the break I'm going to finish my personal website, make a business card and complete the first draft of my cover letter and resume so I can be prepared as soon as I see jobs that I feel are exactly what I would like to do.

  3. I'm going to start identifying and researching my dream companies that do the kind of work or have the same kind of mission that I have. I'll try to find connections to those companies however I can and, if none exist, I'll work on building my own connections.
