We've already touched on the company research information available at many college Career Services offices. The advisors working there are also an excellent source for career development help of many other kinds. Whether you're in the early stages of developing your career plans or you're looking to take your existing career in a new direction, these departments offer assistance that both alumni and students will find invaluable such as:

  • Information on local co-op and internship opportunities
  • Group and one-on-one career counseling
  • Recruitment programs and job fairs
  • Research materials, self-assessment guides and job listings
  • Workshops on resume writing, interviewing techniques and other job search planning assistance

For alumni, the Career Services office is also available - often in conjunction with the Alumni Association - to provide career strategy consultations and networking opportunities. They also bring alumni and students together through mentoring programs where alumni volunteer to provide guidance to students.
