April Resources Newsletter
Dear coaches,

Springtime means sunshine and blooming flowers, but it’s also time for internship prep! Many of our scholars are getting ready for their first internships, a process that involves resume-building and cover letter strategies to land interviews and secure desired spots. 

This is also the last newsletter of this coaching term! As the spring coaching term comes to a close in May, we would like to thank you for supporting your scholars. One of the intentions of the career coaching program is that we hope coaches continue to be a strong pillar in their student's support system year after year. Please be on the lookout for an email from us next month with more information about the end of the coaching term and next steps. If you have any questions or concerns, you can email us at careers@scholarmatch.org and we will be more than happy to provide support.


Sincerely,
ScholarMatch
