The Career Services Office at the College of Business is a place where you can explore careers to see what might be the best fit for you. We help you develop career tools including resumes and cover letters, develop job search skills including interviewing and candidate etiquette, learn about internships, and begin to build your network.
Career Services is available to help you become the professional you want to be. You can schedule a one-on-one session with our career adviser who will direct you to tools and resources that make your career preparation more effective. For example, College of Business students can attend special workshops and access our CareerRAM database with information on approximately 13,000 jobs.
We also provide numerous opportunities for you to connect with business leaders who come to the College of Business to teach classes; participate in case competitions and special projects; serve as guest lecturers; and recruit students for consulting projects, internships and full-time positions.
