How can my student learn about what career options are available?
Published: 03/28/2006 04:17 pm
There are many ways for students to explore the vast range of career opportunities available to them. Students who meet with a Career Development staff member will be directed to many of the following resources and empowered to continue searching these resources to their satisfaction.
· The Career Development Library contains a wealth of information on career fields and options within those fields.
· The career advisors are knowledgeable in the latest career and personality assessments. Students can take these short assessments and learn what career fields work best with their personalities.
· On-line Job Boards contain unlimited postings from around the country. Students who are questioning what to do with their major can look at these boards and see what jobs are available in the market.
· Through extracurricular activities, jobs and internships, and volunteer service, students can “try on” different roles, experience different environments, and uncover the opportunities that exist in different types of organizations.
· Students can browse College Central Network to see which employers are searching for MountUnionCollege students.
· Students can also utilize other campus resources such as Counseling Services, Student Employment, the Office of Alumni Activities, and especially professors.
