What Employers Want

Meet with a Career Counselor

Analytical/Critical Thinking

Employers want GSWS graduates because of their ability to critically examine and question issues that are usually overlooked—a skill which ultimately makes their work much more thorough and well thought-out.

Creative Problem Solving

Employers want workers who find creative ways to solve problems, so they look for GSWS graduates, who have demonstrated creative solutions in classroom settings.

Research and Writing Skills

Because employers desire workers who know how to effectively research, synthesize, interpret and apply information, GSWS grads are ideal job candidates because they possess these skills along with proven writing skills.

Verbal and Communication Skills

GSWS graduates fulfill employers’ expectations of hiring young leaders who can effectively communicate their professionalism, intelligence and critical thinking skills to specific audiences.

Teamwork

Many employers seek employees who can compromise and work collectively with others. With their backgrounds in discussion-based classes, GSWS grads are ready to be such team players.
