Cracking the Code: What Employers Actually Want to Hear and What Students Are Saying

Jennifer Joyner (  / jennifer-joyner-msl-0a76552a  ) and LaToya Counts (  / latoya-counts  ) have devoted their work to helping college students navigate both personal and professional growth. LaToya Counts also extends this work through her book, 7 Step Transition from Student to Professional (https://www.amazon.com/Step-Transitio...) , her workshops (https://7steptransition.com/) , and her new tool, ForwardStack (https://7steptransition.com/forwardst...) . Their guidance equips students with the self-awareness, confidence, and focus needed to step into the workforce with purpose. I was honored to have them join the conversation on “Cracking the Career Code,” where they speak directly to students about recognizing their strengths and using their unique value to stand out to employers and mentors.  Are you a student trying to figure out how your personal talents translate into real-world career success? Don't navigate the shift alone. Listen in to learn exactly how to articulate your unique strengths into actionable career characteristics that employers notice. As always, have a seat and join the conversation as we go Beyond the Syllabus.  Explore episode extras and more at Behind the Mic: www.gobeyondthesyllabus.com (https://www.gobeyondthesyllabus.com/) .
