During my fourth week at Braven, I had the opportunity to shadow Braven's inaugural summer course in action. Braven decided to launch their first iteration of their semester-long course accelerator at San Jose State University, which has now been condensed into a class that meets weekly for three hours for the duration of the summer. They enrolled approximately 40 students into the summer course, some of whom identify as student athletes who are using the class as an opportunity to earn credits during their off-season or students who generally want to take the summer to learn more about how to network and build their leadership skills before the height of internship application season in the fall/spring semesters. Although the class takes place virtually, Braven integrated so much interactive group work into their curriculum. At the top of the session, the course instructor invited one of the Talent Acquisition managers at Braven to discuss what they look at in an ideal candidate and left time for students to ask further questions about what they can do to better format their resumes and cover letters to stand out as an applicant. In addition, the class divided into breakout rooms to practice mock interviews and offer constructive feedback in a less intimidating, smaller group setting. As a college student myself, I gained a lot from my time shadowing the class and realized that I still have a lot to learn about the job application process and the formula that goes into perfecting how to brand myself as an applicant. Braven does so much to close the knowledge gap for students during a time where the job market can look and feel incredibly grim. I am excited to see how this summer course will continue to expand and arm students with the tools necessary to balance between classes and applying for jobs during the school year.
