Career Coaching by Appointment

When you need more in-depth career coaching, make an appointment to meet with a professional career coach. Professional career coaches are assigned to your major and have years of experience. They can help you with things like:

  • Exploring majors and careers
  • Identifying your interests, skills, and values
  • Personality and career assessments
  • Job search and networking strategies (either for co-ops/internships or post-graduation jobs)
  • Preparing for interviews
  • Negotiating salary and benefits
  • Graduate school planning and preparation
  • and more

Availability

Coaching appointments are available year-round, Monday through Friday, except on holidays or when the University is closed. Appointments are free and open to current 美高梅官网 students and alumni who have graduated in the past three years.

Appointment Policies

When making an appointment with a professional career coach, please be aware of the following policies regarding late arrival, cancellation and no-shows.

If you are more than 15 minutes late to your appointment, we will not be able to meet with you. We cannot adequately address your needs in a shortened appointment, and we cannot run over into another student鈥檚 time. You will need to schedule a new appointment in .

If you think you might be late to your appointment, email or call your career coach before the appointment start time. The career coach may be able to accommodate you.

Cancellation

If you are unable to keep your appointment, you must cancel or reschedule your appointment in at least 24 hours before the appointment time.

No-Shows

Students who don鈥檛 show up to an appointment will be marked as a no-show.

Instead, you can see a peer career coach during walk-in hours, which are first-come, first-served.
