Dear Saint Vincent Students and Alumni,
The Career Guide is intended to serve as a resource throughout your entire four-year experience, here at Saint Vincent. Whether a senior or alumni, or just beginning your college career, the information in this guide is to be used as a reference when writing resumes, creating cover letters, thank-you letters, or even when attending a job fair or networking event. You will also find tips on dressing for success, preparing for a job interview or site-visit and information on upcoming events and workshops sponsored by the Saint Vincent College Career Center.
In addition to using the guide, you should make an appointment with a Career Center Professional. We offer services on all career-related topics, such as career exploration, finding an internship or full-time employment, negotiating a salary, preparing a 30-second commercial and much more. We even assist students preparing to go to graduate or professional school. The guide encourages you to not only gain valuable experience inside the classroom, but also encourages skills that will allow you to have a successful academic, personal and professional career through internships, volunteering, service learning, study-abroad and other and civic and social engagements.
The Career Center is located on the first floor of the Robert S. Carey Student Center. Please visit our newly expanded office and meet our staff. Until then, have an exciting 2009-2010 academic year!
