Mock Interview Day allows students to sit face-to-face with a professional in their chosen field and conduct an interview. Interviews are timed and, at their conclusion, students will receive real-time feedback on their performance. The professionals will also offer pointers to develop the students’ interview skills and confidence.
Sophomore Success is a weekly seminar designed to cultivate students' career development skills and knowledge, providing students with a competitive advantage as they move into junior year. The goal is to make these sessions fun and informative, so we focus on using real-world examples and having great discussions.
Topics can include:
Senior Launch is a series of events that focuses on major issues students face as they prepare for life after graduation. These events give seniors a chance to engage with staff as well as outside experts to get the information they need to prepare for their next step.
Topics can include:
Make an appointment with your career center counselor for assistance with career exploration, career coaching, networking strategies, interview preparation, fine-tuning your resume, and much more.
Trained CPAs can assist students with resumes, cover letters, LinkedIn profiles, and Stags4Hire. Check for the weekly schedule.
This Fairfield networking opportunity takes place over winter break where students are paired with alumni professionals for a day or half-day of rewarding career exploration.
