What are common career planning topics I can get help with?

Students and alumni meet with career staff on a variety of topics related to career and major exploration, part-time job search support, help finding and applying for an internship, resume and cover letter assistance, help preparing for an interview, and exploring graduate and professional school opportunities.

When scheduling an appointment through email, over the phone, or in-person, just share what you would like to meet about, and we will find a staff member who is best suited to that topic. When using Handshake to schedule your appointment, choose from the list of career planning categories that best fits what you would like to discuss.
