Individual assistance in career exploration, career planning, job search skills, (i.e., resumes, cover letters, interviews, negotiating offers), graduate school options, and career transitions is available to all students and alumni.
Career Assessment
The Career Center offers the career assessment tools, SkillScan and TypeFocus. These self-assessment resources allow students and alumni to explore career options that relate to their personality, skills, interests, and values.
Resources
A wide variety of print, video and web-based career resources are available to students and alumni. Career-related books and graduate school materials are available in room 230 in the Library. In addition, students, faculty, and staff may access many career and job search resources on the Career Center’s page on GullNet (alumni and parents can access these materials on the Career Center’s page on Endicott’s website). Resources include iCareer Advisor, a series of 25 brief and informative videos on a wide range of career topics, Perfect Interview, an online resource to prepare for and practice interviewing, and Uniworld, an online business directory..

The Career Center also coordinates on-campus interviews as well as employer information tables in the Callahan Center.
Networking Opportunities
Opportunities to network with alumni are organized by the Career Center and Alumni Relations Office throughout the year. Examples include career panels, mock interviews, networking receptions, business etiquette dinners, and an alumni mentoring program.
