连接就业服务

说服 your student to be proactive in setting and achieving career goals.

The earlier a career is chosen, the sooner your student will know if it is a good fit. 长期计划会让你的学生走在正确的轨道上. 研究还将提高对就业市场需求的认识, 薪水范围, 远程的机会, 技能要求, 等. It is also important for your student to have some idea of the next step after graduation. 你的学生联系就业服务中心了吗 早期 so they can get the most help with preparation for employment and life after college.

提醒你的学生从一开始就把学习放在首位.

虽然允许一段调整期很重要, keep in mind that one semester with a low GPA can adversely affect your student's overall GPA. It is much easier to maintain a good GPA than it is to take multiple semesters to bring it back up.

鼓励你的学生在大学期间获得适合市场的技能. The National Association of Colleges and Employers refer to these as Career Competencies. 雇主希望学生获得适用于工作场所的技能. 这些只是其中的几个:

• Computer (programming, word processing, creating spreadsheets, working with databases)
• 定量(会计学、统计学、经济学)
• 沟通(写作、演讲)
• 市场营销(销售、宣传、筹款)
• 科学(实验室、科学研究和技术写作技能)
• 外语(西班牙语、法语、德语等.)
• 领导 (extra-curricular leadership, teamwork, time management, supervisory)

职业能力也可以通过俱乐部和组织获得, 志愿服务机会, 还有暑期工作和实习. Help your student know 职业服务 is here to share advice and suggestions to have them make the most of their time while they are going to school.

支持你的学生参加校园里的俱乐部和组织.

Employers value participation, especially where your student has held leadership positions. It is more important to be in a few meaningful leadership roles than to be a member of several clubs and organizations. 领导 experiences will not only look great on a resume but will also give your student the opportunity to gain marketable skills. 通过志愿服务参与社区活动也受到雇主的重视. 志愿者机会通过dr2在线发布.0 and students can indicate if they are interested in volunteering through their profile.

影响 your student to gain work experience through 职业服务’ experiential learning program.

Students often don’t know if they will like a particular career until they try it out in a real-world setting. 通过职业服务中心的体验式学习项目, students work at summer jobs or internship positions related to their major while gaining valuable on-the-job experience. Students may also receive better-than-average pay and qualify for academic credit.
