Introduction The Discovery Project will aid in identifying essential criteria you must consider as you pursue any organization. To outpace your competition, you will need to create a connection between the employer’s brand and your personal brand. In the four-step Personal Branding Process (Discover, Create, Communicate, Maintain), this jump-starts the Discovery stage. You will spend time finding key information and career opportunities on your selected organization that will be used in composing your resume, cover letter, personal brand pitch, online applications, and interview responses.

In Part 1, you will identify a company/organization, (hereafter referred to as “company”), and its location, for whom you would like to work and a “real” posted job vacancy. You must use an internship vacancy or an entry level position for which no more than one to three years of experience are needed. You will also pinpoint and highlight at least five required/desired skills or qualities the employer seeks that you have.

Submission Directions Complete Part 1, sections 1 through 3 in their entirety prior to submitting a readable Microsoft Word document in the Blackboard Assignment Drop Box by 11:59 p.m., Sunday, August 28, 2016.

Section 1 Company Name/Location 5 points

The name of my company and its location are:

Section 2 Job Vacancy Identification and Subsequent Text Acquisition 15 points

Although we will be discussing job search methods throughout the course, to start you may need to do some of the leg work on your own to identify a company with a posted position. If you need assistance, visit with me during office hours the first week of classes. Please note that the company you select will be the company you continue to use for the remainder of the course.

Locate a “real” job vacancy for which you are qualified now , meaning internship or entry level position requiring no more than one to three years of experience, with a company of interest using the suggested resources. Remember, you will use this company and the associated vacancy throughout the course! The job vacancy you select must have at least five required/desired skills you will use to brand yourself in all of your upcoming assignments. If the vacancy does not have at least five skills, look for another that does. Once you have identified the position vacancy, copy and paste the text into a new Microsoft Word document or a PDF, and save it. A hard copy version of the job vacancy will be due with your resume assignments.

Use the following resources to identify a posted job vacancy.
