There are four Career Services offices in New Brunswick and
Piscataway to assist Rutgers students. Locations include the Busch
Campus Center, 46 College Avenue, 56 College Avenue, and 61 Nichol
Avenue. Students are welcome to use any office.
The mission of
Career Services is to help students prepare for careers after Rutgers.
The office helps students explore their interests and skills in
relation to internships, full-time jobs, and graduate school. Career
Services provides individual career counseling to undergraduates,
graduate students, and alumni. The office also offers seminars on
choosing a major, job hunting, résumé writing, job interviewing, and
applying to graduate school. The Rutgers Online Career Planning Site
and the "Focus" system determine students' interests, skills and
values, and relates them to majors and jobs.
Three offices
offer students computer labs and career libraries. Current job listings
for full-time positions and internships are available online through
MonsterTRAK at http://www.monstertrak.com. More than 10,000 positions are posted each year.
Career Services sponsors InterviewTRAK, an on-campus recruiting program
which brings hundreds of employers to campus each year for interviews.
Other employment services include career days, efairs, and a résumé
database.
An online credentials service, Interfolio, located at http://www.interfolio.com, is available for students applying to graduate school or seeking teaching or administrative positions in schools.
Career Services publishes the Career Services Guide annually, the
"Careers" supplement to the Daily Targum six times a year, and online
newsletters and updates to assist students with career planning and
employment. Students are also encouraged to visit Career Services
online at http://careerservices.rutgers.edu.
