Interns to Industry: Connecting students to the workforce
The nuclear industry has long recognized a shortage of both skilled craft labor and professional talent. As global demand for reliable energy continues to rise—across the United States and internationally—that need has not only increased but has become critical.” This is a truth that nuclear industry consultant Jeffery P. Hawkins understands, and it is why he developed a program called Interns to Industry. The former Fluor Corporation executive said that “there has been a deficit of qualified resources in the nuclear industry, and this is forecasted to be even more so in the future, so I am working with various universities to determine how to customize their curriculums to fit the forecasted needs of the industry.”

This workshop will address how to build a successful resume or CV in industry, national labs, academia, and government/policy. In the first half of this workshop, panelists representing each sector will go through what makes for a strong application in their sector, and critique different examples as a group. Following this, attendees will split into groups based on their sectors of interest and workshop their own resumes/CVs with a panelist and each other. Audience members are recommended to bring their own resume/CV.
