Individual Advising
- Meet one on one with a professional career advisor and develop your own personalized career action plan.
- A career advisor can help you build the research and job search skills you will need to be successful.
- Evening or phone appointments can be made for students who work full-time or have other time restrictions. Virtual appointments via Zoom can also be scheduled by any student or alumni.
Practice Interviews
Were you invited to interview for your dream internship or job opportunity? Are you asking yourself the question, “Now what?” Schedule an appointment to meet with one of our advisors to go over tips to prepare for your interview! We simulate an interview setting, ask real interview questions, and provide feedback during an hour mock interview session. The session is broken down into two parts. First, we will go through a 25-30 minute interview with tailored questions followed by a 20-30 minute coaching session that will provide you an opportunity to learn where you excel, as well as areas that you need to continue working on to develop your interviewing skills. Come in and gain the experience and confidence needed to shine at your next interview. Schedule your appointment today!
Drop-in Advising
