Services


Career Coaching
The Office of Career Management (OCM) provides one-on-one career coaching in all aspects of the career management process: self-assessment, market assessment, job search skills and tools, and negotiation strategies.

 

Self-Assessment
OCM offers SkillScan, a self-assessment tool, to help students identify career interests, values, and skills.

 

Résumé and Cover Letter Review
Career management specialists help students shape their
résumé and cover letter into effective job search tools.

 

Mock Interviews

A mock interview provides an excellent dress rehearsal for the real thing. Mock interviews can be videotaped, and feedback is provided by career management specialists.

 

Symplicity Job Postings and Announcements
Students can apply to full-time and summer internship positions posted in Symplicity, as well as register for career events, including career fairs, corporate presentations, and workshops.

 

Résumé Books
OCM invites companies to browse
résumé books in Symplicity, organized by specialization and graduation year, to identify appropriate candidates for full-time opportunities and summer internships.

 

Résumé Referral
At the request of employers, OCM forwards resumes of those students who meet the employer's stated qualifications for full-time positions or summer internships.

 

Career Management Program (CMP)
The CMP, a required, non-credit-bearing course for all full-time master of business administration/master of quantitative finance students is given each fall to introduce students to the career management process and to assist students in formulating appropriate strategies for an effective job search.

 

Career Management Workshop (CMW)
The CMW is held during the summer for part-time students graduating in the upcoming academic year who wish to participate in the OCM Recruiting Program. Attending the CMW is mandatory for participation in the OCM Recruiting Program.

 

Resources:

Symplicity
