“I knew what career I wanted to pursue when I started the Career Identity Program, but I didn’t have a clue how to begin preparing for it. Courtney, my Career Development Center counselor, taught me the importance of reaching out to people in my field and asking them for advice, which has made me more confident in my networking skills.”

Kristen Kosobucki, psychology major

It has provided me with the necessary skills and built my confidence when interacting with future employers, knowing that I did all that I could to prepare.”
