Job Search

Job SearchThe process of finding a job can be a full-time job in itself.  We understand how challenging it can be, and we’re here to help.  

We recommend that you meet with a career counselor in our office to discuss career options and determine how to land a job that is a good fit for your skills, strengths, and preferences.   

Simply call (315) 443-3616 or stop by 235 Schine Student Center to set-up an appointment.

If you’re getting started, check out our reccommended job search engines, the four basic strategies of job seeking, and tips for targeting employers.
