# Student Chatbot

## Description
With so many resources available to students it would be really nice if there were a digital assistant to help navigate the path to learning the technical skills and soft skills all while preparing for our job search.

The ChatBot is a universal chat agent that can help students before, during, and after the cohort as they look for resources to help with a job interview, request sample interview questions, or ask for reminders to send a follow-up to an employer.
