Suggestions for your Success!
What makes you tick?
What major will fit you best?
How will you find a good career?
And how can you keep from going crazy trying to sort through this swirl of career related questions?
Many college students feel confused and overwhelmed by all of the career decisions they must make. Fortunately, there's a strategy you can use to make the whole process a little easier on your nerves, and your brain: Pursue tangible career goals each year you're in school.
Every Fall Semester…
• Pick-up Career center’s calendar-dates, times of job-search workshops and seminars.
• Update your resume, have it proofread and critiqued.
• Consider subscribing and reading professional journals in your chosen field.
• Check for internship programs in your field, or a field that interest you.
• Join professional associations.

“A job is for a day, a career is for a lifetime.”
