Calling All Young Professionals and Students

Year after year, all students and young professionals have the same questions: What are employers looking for in a candidate? What can I do to be at the front of the pack?

The answers are simple - learn more about the industry and build your professional network. I know it sounds generic and not helpful. However, how do you convince someone that you are the right person for the job if you don’t know the acronyms on the job description? If you don’t know anyone, who are you going to convince?
