| Today’s Job Market and How We Are Preparing Students |
Taking on the current job market can seem a bit daunting, but with the right preparation candidates can set themselves apart.
In this edition of Smith Business Close-Up with the University of Maryland’s Robert H. Smith School of Business, Jeff Kudisch talks about how the school is helping students prepare to take on the job market —including innovative activities such as an improv workshop to build communications skills.
Kudisch is the managing director of the Office of Career Services at the Smith School and a faculty expert in leadership, negotiations and human capital management. He has a PhD in industrial and organizational psychology and he co-founded Personnel Assessment Systems, Inc., a human resource consulting firm specializing in executive assessment and leadership development.
Smith Business Close-Up is co-produced by the Robert H. Smith School of Business and Maryland Public Television. The television segment focuses on the latest thinking in business management, and features in-depth interviews with Smith School faculty and other members of the school’s community of business leaders.
