The Business Placement Center located within the College of Business is proud to be entering into its 18th year of offering comprehensive career services to students, alumni and corporate partners.
Each day, students have the opportunity to meet with staff members during walk-in advising in order to build stronger resumes, refine interviewing skills, evaluate compensation packages, and much more. Career advisors are available to discuss in-depth career questions, such as what opportunities exist within a student's major, how to begin the job search process, and how to contact companies across the country.
