Welcome to Career Corner….your spot for career & internship information.

The Office of Career Services provides career exploration and experiential-education opportunities, as well as career-related events during the academic year, which take place both on and off campus. 

We know that career-related topics and activities are sometimes introduced in specific courses and would like to offer our services to assist you with these efforts. We offer:

·         Career counseling and assessment tools (e.g., Discover, Myers Briggs, Self-Directed Search, Strong
       Interest Inventory)

·         Career-related workshops, both in the classroom and extracurricular

·         On-campus recruitment and job fairs

·         Resume and cover letter critique

·         Interview preparation and practice

·         Major-related speakers (particularly during Pitt-Greensburg’s Career Month in the spring)

·         On-line tools to research experiential-education opportunities and entry-level positions

·         Career Resource Library (Chambers 218)

Information Sessions will be offered to promote various off-campus events, including University of Pittsburgh Fall Job & Internship Fair, PHRA Conference, Scholars in Service, and the WestPACS Job & Internship Fair.

On-Campus Recruitment: Throughout the year, we will send you information and/or announce various employers who are recruiting on campus. We will send targeted emails and announcements to faculty regarding these major-related opportunities.
