What I enjoy most about being a CAP: I love being a CAP because it gives me the opportunity to talk to students who I would not normally have a chance to interact with. I get to meet new people, learn about their career goals and aspirations, and help them put their best foot forward to employers to work to achieve those goals and aspirations.
