Career Development offers guidance on all aspects of career planning, job searching, as well as preparing for graduate school.

We provide individual counseling through scheduled appointments and “walk-ins,” where students can come without an appointment to get quick questions asked and answered. We maintain substantial resources including places to find summer jobs, internships and full-time post-graduate positions, and facilitate the preparation for their job search through assistance with resumes, cover letters, interviewing practice, and networking skills.

The Office of Career Development provides students the opportunity to post their resumes on College Central Network. This Internet based company allows students to search potential employers as well as employers to find the perfect MountUnionCollege student for their company.

We also work with students on the application process to graduate and professional school, including advising on application strategies, reviewing personal statements, and graduate school essays.

We operate an exceptional Career Library with up-to-date resources on career fields, graduate programs, internships, local resources, and potential employers.

We also manage a network of alumni/alumnae who volunteer to talk to MountUnionCollege students about the preparation for future careers. These dedicated alumni/alumnae come to campus to participate in workshops on career fields and graduate study, job fairs, as well as mock interviews and one-on-one personal discussions.

We run an extremely active On-Campus Recruiting program through which employers come to MountUnion to present their organizations to our students, as well as interview them for summer jobs and internships, and permanent positions.
