There are some excellent websites that offer pertinent information about a variety of career fields and job opportunities. Check out the Online Resources we have compiled to help get you started in your search for career information. Depending on one's circumstances, there may be a network of individuals that you can contact for information about other work environments. Keeping your list in mind of the satisfying aspects of your job and career, talk to alumni about their career paths and the positions that they hold. Check with the Alumni Affairs Office to see if there is a local alumni chapter near your home.
Some chapters are very involved in offering programs through out the year.
It is vital that you create a network of people to assist you at this time. Alumni may seek out counselors in Career services for advice about their resumes, graduate schools, etc. Resumes may be faxed to our office or sent via e-mail and returned to you with comments. However, if you reside in another geographic area and seek more extensive assistance that might include vocational testing, contact the Counseling Centers of the colleges or universities that are near to you. They typically have a list of professionals or the names of the local chapters of professional organizations that offer vocational counseling.
