The Job Search

It's never too early to begin preparing for the job search. We are here to walk you through resources to get you started and provide opportunities to grow your network. If you haven't already, make sure to create your Handshake and LinkedIn profiles. It's never too early to attend a career fair or graduate school fair to gather information and start networking, either!

Interviewing

Conducting a job-winning interview can seem like an impossible feat, but with proper preparation, effective employer research, and fantastic follow-up, it’s easy to give an interview that will make you stand out. To hone your interviewing skills, we provide practice interview appointments to help you assess your interview strengths, weaknesses, and nervous habits. Have a phone or video interview already lined up, and need a quiet place to go? We have you covered there, too--just submit the room request form through the appointments portion of Handshake.
