The Career Center
Career Development: The Career Center helps students and Alumni with their career-development needs: resources to explore majors and careers; individual career counseling; internships; job shadowing; and assistance with creating job-search materials, conducting job searches and applying to graduate schools. Staff members help students identify, understand and explore topics related to career development.
Career Exploration: Using assessments, such as the Self-Directed Search, Meyers-Briggs Type Indicator and Focus 2, career counselors help individuals learn more about themselves; identify their skills, values and interests; and explore occupations and academic majors. Researching working conditions, employment outlook, salary surveys and education or training requirements can help individuals make important academic and career decisions. Staff members show students how to locate resources for researching occupations and employers.
Professional Credentials: The Career Center offers professional advice on preparing résumés and/or curricula vitae, writing letters, completing applications, researching employers and industries, learning and practicing effective interview techniques, networking, preparing portfolios, conducting successful job and/or internship searches, preparing for graduate or professional school and transitioning from college to career.
Career Events: Students and employers make contact through on-campus interviews, career fairs and job postings from employers. Students browse online job listings at no charge with JobTracks.
