Making it Big Monday

Careers After Graduation

Many students do not start their career planning until a month before graduation. Although students see this as ample time to get a job, it may not be the career path they had originally intended when signing up for college.

With only 7 weeks left of your last semester, students are scrambling to find placements, jobs, and figure out what to do next after graduation. If you haven't started at this point, you may be sadly left out of the hiring or the university transfer path. But do not fear, it may take you a little longer to get to your end goal (if you have one defined), but you will make it.

Start by trying to define what you want to do when school is done. Is there a  company in particular where you can see yourself working? Are they currently hiring, allowing placement students or volunteers to enter into the workforce? What qualifications, experience or attributes to they want in an employee? And do you have what they are looking for? Do you need to complete additional training to be accepted into their company?
