Faculty member Larry Goldsmith, CWDP, P.E.T. is the Instructor-In-Charge of the Parks and Leisure Services program at SPC. In addition to being a professor and managing the department, he is a professional Career Development Specialist and Advisor, Résumé Writer and Job Search Specialist. 

Two books to his credit, Building the Looking-Glass Résumé and the Anatomy of a Job Fair, he also writes a blog called jazzle.com that provides comprehensive career advice including excellent advice about effective searching techniques.

Students often ask us in the SPC Internship Office about what to wear for interviews. Do I need to wear a suit or is business casual just fine? We advise that you should always dress professionally and in most cases a suit is preferred interview attire.
