Paper Abstract:	One of the challenges that many undergraduate students face when they start their lives after college is that there is no clear career path. The nature of each job in today’s fast-changing economic and technological environment is fluid, and students should be prepared to reinvent themselves and adjust their career paths more than once during their working years. Based on these observations, we present a framework to help students market themselves during their interviews, and we explain how these interviewing skills can be included and practiced not only in a traditional classroom but also in an online teaching environment. Particular attention is devoted to the introduction of virtual avatar technology under development at Saint Leo University.
