Search for Job OpportunitiesJob Search

 

The most difficult part of starting a search for career opportunities - is getting started! It is difficult because it can feel overwhelming, especially for college students who have to learn how to conduct the search.

 

Many candidates find it useful to think of the search as a project that can be broken down to manageable steps. Start by:

  1. Identifying what you want by when (i.e. an internship by summer).
  2. Schedule time to work on your search (specific times each week).
  3. Identify the steps you need to take:
    • Make an appointment with Career Development
    • Write a résumé
    • Identify websites
    • etc.
  4. Prioritize what needs to be done first.
  5. No excuse - do it!
