Abstract
Welcome to the Thirteenth Annual Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Student Career Panel. This year's paper emphasizes the importance of career planning and preparation throughout the graduate school experience. It addresses tried and tested techniques as well as new ideas for finding the ideal career path and position. Early career preparation (or even taking remedial action) both enhances the graduate school experience and helps to secure the ideal job. Beyond the position statements found below, the panel itself will address questions from the audience about career preparation. A second paper will be produced, based upon the panel presentations and discussion, and will be available upon request to session attendees and included alongside this paper in the 2007 edition of the Career Resource Guide.
