Job Search Preparation

An effective job search involves more than a new suit and a nice smile (though these might help).

To be successful, you'll need to:
  • research employers;
  • create and polish your resume;
  • practice your interviewing skills; and
  • have a well-planned strategy.
You'll want to determine the best places to meet and network with employers, which might include career fairs, on-campus interviewing, online databases, and other opportunities. In short, a productive job search will involve investing time and energy, not to mention a little planning. The good news is that the University Career Center is ready to help you with every step of the process.
