Career Counselor
I assist university students and alumni with their job and internship searches.
A great day at work is spent meeting with students and alumni to discuss their resumes, cover letters, interview skills and more! A great day also typically incorporates a workshop or two, where a group of students come together to learn and discuss career-related topics. It also typically involves investing a good deal of time into researching and developing new resources for students and alumni to utilize as they work on developing their professional materials.
Here's the first step for college students
One of the most valuable things a college student can do is get involved on campus in groups and organizations that are meaningful to them! The second most valuable thing college students can do is get connected with all the amazing resources available to them on campus for no additional cost. The connections students make through doing these two things are priceless and can open a number of doors down the road.
"There is no need to go to a fancy, private school. There is no need for college really, unless you are going to choose a major that will make you money. We will not support you financially in this endeavor."
