Career Coaching

Career coaches at the Wasserman Center provide professional, individualized career guidance and support throughout the career exploration process. We can help you identify career interests, explore professional goals, and discuss job search strategies in your specific area of interest. Assessment tools and interest inventories are also available to students who need additional guidance in identifying appropriate career options. An appointment with a career coach can help you:

  • Identify and explore career interests
  • Effectively search for internships and jobs in your field
  • Edit your resume and cover letter
  • Polish your interviewing skills
  • Create a job search strategy
  • Learn about your interests, preferences, and work style with the assistance of an assessment tool (Strong Interest Inventory or Myers-Briggs Type Indicator)

To schedule an appointment with a career coach, log in to Handshake. Under "Career Center" on the upper tool bar, select Appointments.
