Employers who come onto campus have high expectations for student resumes and interviewing skills. All students submitting their resumes for on campus interviews are strongly encouraged to have their resume critiqued by a staff member in the St. Paul Campus Career Center prior to submitting it to employers. It is also strongly encouraged that students attend our interview workshop and it is expected that you will conduct a mock interview with a professional staff person. For a list of drop in hours and workshop times visit our online calendar.
Please note that different industries have different recruiting methods when hiring new employees. On campus interviewing is a helpful job search tool for many majors, but not all. Students who will typically work with smaller employers or non-profit organizations may find other job searching methods more valuable. For individual assistance with your job search contact the St. Paul Campus Career Center front desk to schedule an appointment at 612-624-2710.
