The Office of Career Services is dedicated to assisting students and alumni as they navigate their educational and career journeys.

Our mission is to help Redhawks become independent, career-ready professionals with the tools they need to thrive. We offer mock interviews, resume reviews, and other services to empower students for their first interview and beyond.

Hear from a student

"About my sophomore year, when I was kind of going through a life crisis, I felt like everyone else knew what they wanted to do, and I was the only one who really didn't. I was getting ready to take the exam to get into a nursing program because I thought that I was supposed to be a nurse, but I really didn't know. I remember calling up Career Services and they were like, ‘What's going on?’ And I kind of explained to them the situation and they got me in for an appointment the very next day. And I remember meeting with somebody. I don't think I could ask for anybody better."
