ADVICE FOR SENIORS: Job Consultant Emphasizes Organization IFC Booths Depict Scene By Shoreline Fraternities To Combine Efforts Constructing City; Displays To Win Trophies Waterfront scenes will be the theme of the booths erected by the fraternities for the 18th an- nual IFC Ball to be presented from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Friday, May 6 at the Intramural Building.

Electric signs and flash- ing lights may add detail to the decorations. The effect of the whole theme will be a small city built on a waterfront. Some suggestions for booth construction are: a soup kitchen, a warehouse, a fish market or a seamen's em- ployment office. Fraternities, by uniting, will make it a better dance since their booths will be the main part of the decora- tions. Six trophies will be awarded for the three best booths, an identi- cal trophy being given to tfie two fraternities combining their ef- forts in the construction. These trophies will be donated by local merchants. Judging the displays will be Se- ger H. Slifer, a prominent Michi- gan alumnus; Dr. Carl D.

(Editor's Note-This is the first in a series of articles outlining job op- portunities for women. Problems in choosing a vocation and methods of getting employment will be discus- sed.) By JEAN RUSS Some concrete recommenda- tions by Mrs. Mary Edlund, New York job consultant and employ- ment expert, especially aimed at those who .will face the employ- ment problem after graduation, were given in an interview last week. Her firstsadvice toa prospective applicant is that she analyze her own assets. "Realize what you have to offer to the employer that will benefit him financially." She warns against emphasizing only the fact that the job-hunter wants the job in question. "Look at the situation from the employ- er's point of view, see what you have that he needs. Use a little practical psychology.' * * * AS THE SECOND step in find- ing employment, one can list those assets in a concrete manner, "List Staff Members Attend Convention Three staff members of the Women's Physical Education De- partment have been in Boston this week attending the 54th annual convention of the American As- sociation for Health, Physical Ed- ucation and Recreation. Those who went to the meeting are Prof. Laurie E. Campbell, in charge of the teacher education program in the department; Miss Ruth Harris, head of corrective work and Miss Fritzie Gareis, in- structor in general sports. the most important things you have to offer the desired job first. Prove that you can do what' you want to do by backing up your statements with things that you have done-summer jobs, extra- curricular activities, and grades." "Include personal informa- tion, references, an new ideas for the job. Let your whole resume represent you and what you can do. .Don't be overmodest, but back up your abilities with past experience.'" After making a resume the next step is to send "shotgun" letters to prospective employers. These are letters stating your qualifica- tions, as outlined in the resume, asking for interviews. * * * LETTERS scattered throughout the business in which you are in- terested act like pellets of shotgun fire. Some hit but the majority of them will not. The reason for a shotgun letter is that some will make their mark and interviews will result." According to Mrs. Edlund, giving a good interview is an art, but one which can be cultivated by anyone. "Cold" interviews, those without a letter or tele- phone call in advance will sel- dom bring results. Something is usually needed to give the employer preliminary informa- tion about the applicant. Shot- gun letters can do this. "One excellent device to make an applicant stand out from the crowd," Mrs. Edlund said, "can be a cleverly devised scrapbook which presents concrete evidence of the ability of the person being interviewed." This scrapbook may contain letters of recommenda- tion, information on jobs pre- viously held, personal facts, and samples of the applicant's work. School and college records may also be included, but only relevent detail. As a last word of advice, Mrs. Edlund states, "Don't be afraid to use "pull". Personal contacts help introduce you to the business world. An applicant who has been recommended by someone known to the personnel of the company will be hired before another with equal ability." "Personal information on the interviewee's habits and possibili- ties are easier to obtain in this way. Don't shy away from culti- vating useful contacts. They may give you the extra inch that counts someday." Mrs. Edlund speaks from exper- ience. She and her husband, Sid- ney Edlund, founded the Mari- marketing Clinic, a non-profit or- ganization sponsored by business- men which helped thousands to employment success. Together they wrote a factual reference book on employment problems, "Pick Your Job and Land It!" Whq leave it hanging around? let U4 make a lovely cape styled for YOU! HOW VALUABLE ARE YOUR FURS?
