Career consulting sessions are 1:1 meetings where students have a space to ask questions and get advice about any career topic. Career center staff members educate students on best practices and provide tailored advice and recommendations based on the student鈥檚 individual circumstances and needs. Staff approach the sessions as working meetings and ensure the students leave with tangible next steps and resources.
