Will traditional CVs be relevant by the time you graduate?
This article, found via the Bachelor EGC Facebook page, definitely caught my attention -- and should catch yours.
It's in French, and I could have found similar information in English, but you might have thought "OK, that's happening in the USA, but not here, and anyway France is usually about 5 years behind on a lot of things..."
But no, this article is about FRANCE and what it explains could definitely have an impact on YOU -- maybe not quite by the time you graduate from your Bachelor's program, but certainly a few years down the road.
Today's writing assignment involves developing your reaction to the article.
Step by step:
1. Read the article En 2012, le CV passe à la trappe, and make sure to watch the video.
2. IN ENGLISH, write a SHORT summary of the article, then write about your reaction to it.
3. You can work in pairs or individually.
4. Make sure to make use of appropriate IT/ Internet tools to improve your writing: online dictionaries, Google methods, spell-check in English
5. The work can be submitted in two ways: as a comment on this blog post (preferred, but prepare it on another platform so it can be saved as you go along) or as a Word document to be submitted via Infomédiare (Dossier EGC 2 - Vie Scolaire - Dépôts.)
6. The writing produced does not have to be extremely long: work for clarity, accuracy, and even originality.
7. Travail à rendre pour le cours de la semaine prochaine au plus tard, mais qui peut également être terminé en cours aujourd'hui .
