| Job Shadow Program Now is the time! Experience first hand how your education will be put to use in the workplace. Simply click on the groundhog graphic, fill out and submit your application. Deadline to submit your application is February 8, 2012, and is limited to the first 25 applicants. We ask that you only sign up if you are willing to make a commitment to follow through on the job shadow experience. When you apply to the Job Shadow Program, you are agreeing to job shadow a mentor within the month you receive your mentor’s contact information. After the February 8th deadline, Career Services will match you with a professional in your field and notify you of the match. You then make contact with that professional to set up your date and time to job shadow. We recommend that you spend an entire day, but if your schedules do not allow this, a half-day is fine. The deadline for completion of your Job Shadow is March 31, 2012.
Still not convinced? Read these quotes from past participants... - I really enjoyed being able to see and experience what I was being taught and reading about in class.

- Although I have worked since I was 15, my mentor allowed me to realize how competitive the working field is and encouraged me to find an edge and expand my technology knowledge.
- I experienced a lot of hands-on learning, in-planted cattle, gave vacinations, and more!
- I was surprised to see how much interpersonal skills and effective communication is a HUGE part of a doctor's job; it's not just knowing the human body, doctor's need to be good with people.
