Career Services
Coaches are a team of student-volunteers with diverse experiences and backgrounds who work 1-on-1 with undergraduate and graduate students to customize resumes, cover letters, and CVs. Even during a time of social distancing, there are still opportunities to impact the lives of other students. Learn more about how you can make an impact while also improving your own interpersonal and communication skills here.
