Students become more motivated and interested in their studies if they know more about their field and the opportunities available.

  • Write a resume and/or cover letter and schedule an appointment with a career advisor to critique.
  • Schedule and attend a mock interview to receive valuable feedback on verbal communication skills.
  • Create a list of questions to ask employers at a job and internship fair to gather information and build a professional network. Attend a job and internship fair.
  • Research internship and career possibilities using any of our exploration tools, including What Can I Do With This Major, Idaho CIS and CandidCareer.
