Take advantage of our drop-in hours this Thursday from 9a to 4p. It’s totally informal, so just drop by and feel free to talk to anyone about jobs, internships, resumes, cover letters, interviews…whatever!
What’s the treat? Excellent career advice and guidance, of course! Okay, there’s candy also.

Whatever is on your mind, whatever your career hunt looks like, whatever state your resume is in, come in to Career Services on Friday from 10a to 2pm to chat with your rock star advisor team.

We know you have a lot to think about with only 9 months to go until **gasp** the real world, so start now to figure how best to position yourself upon graduation.

It could be anything from describing your summer internship and learning how to leverage that experience for future jobs to techniques to make the most out of your last year of school.

Besides, it’s on a Friday and James, Bill, and Jessica would love to chat. Do it.

Many people go into interviews without proper preparation. Don’t be that person! Understanding how to interview can prove to be just as crucial as getting the interview.

To help you prepare for future interviews, we are holding a 1 hour workshop this Wednesday, Oct 14 in Chiles 228 from 4p to 5p. Everyone can benefit from this workshop, so be sure to RSVP to bethanyr@uoregon.edu to get your spot.

If Tom Cruise had come to a workshop, this awkward moment may never have happened…

The deadline is coming! This Friday, October 9th, applications for the business and accounting majors are due.

If you need help with some last minute application and/or resume issues, you can check out the application/resume workshop on Wednesday, October 7 from 4p-5p in Chiles 228. Please RSVP to bethanyr@uoregon.edu.
