Did you see our Summer “To-do List”?
Guess what? The steps to take this fall aren’t that different!
Don’t wait until May (or December) to start thinking about your post-college life. Employers are thinking about you NOW, so plan ahead and be ready for them!
1. Update your resume to include summer or other recently gained experience and skills. Have it reviewed by the Career Services office.
(Drop off your resume in our office, or email to: ask4careeradvice@psu.edu)
2. Prepare (sample) cover letters & create or update your references list
3. Use INTERVIEW STREAM to practice interviewing
4. Research careers and employers using links on the Career Services website: www.hbg.psu.edu/careers
5. Activate and use your free Nittany Lion Career Network account (NLCN) to look for job and internship positions.
6. SENIORS and selected INTERNS: Prepare for fall recruiting: Add On-Campus Interviewing (OCI) to your NLCN account.
(Only this part has a $15 charge for the full academic year. Basic NLCN is free.)
7. Attend career workshops to prepare, and fall career fairs to meet employers and share your resume.
8. Meet with a Career Counselor to review plans.
