In this workshop, Dr. Pankaj Desai - the Assistant Director for International Student Career Development at The Career Center will discuss strategies to prepare for and thrive in the U.S. workplace.

Participants would also be invited to share their understanding of the differences between the work cultures of the U.S. and their country of origin. This workshop aims to facilitate an enriched understanding of the U.S. work culture and assist the participants in the navigation of intercultural differences to be able to thrive in the American workplace.
