What is Job- shadowing?
Job-shadowing is an opportunity for you to connect or “shadow” with a business professional (job- shadowing mentor) who has specific knowledge
about an occupation or career in which you are interested. You observe responsibilities and tasks associated with the mentor’s career and have the
opportunity to ask questions about the knowledge, skills, talents, and level of education required for the job. While the purpose of job shadowing is to
gather career related information and expand your networking contacts, it also allows you to build interviewing skills, become aware of trends in the
field and see workforce technologies in action. Multiple job- shadowing experiences may be arranged to allow you to explore a variety of career paths.
Does Job-shadowing Really Work?
Yes! Job- shadowing works because most people:
• Enjoy talking about their jobs and career fields.
• Are flattered that you ask their advice to assist with your career and future.
• Are empathetic about career transitions because they have experienced them.
• Like to assist others because it makes them feel good.
