-: Yeah, I think the Career Center was
extremely helpful for me, at both my
undergrad and my grad program.
I think I probably utilized it more smartly
and to a better degree when I was a grad student
rather than being an undergrad.
Definitely the most helpful thing for me is, just sort of,
I mean, I think a lot of students get wrapped up,
kind of like in their own heads,
with preparing certain things they were going to say
either for interviews or what direction
they're going to go on for their career search,
or what kind of jobs they were looking at and stuff.
And I think like, it certainly, certainly helps
to go out there and air this out,
and bounce it off of somebody whose
kind of job it is to do this.
And sort of, in doing this I did develop
a very strong relationship with my career coach,
my career counselor and he helped me
through the job search, post job search,
I'm still connected with him,
I talk to him several times a year now.
You know, he's been a great mentor to me
and sort of that was developed by
visiting the career center in the first place.
And I think, you know, beyond this,
there are certainly a lot of other resources
the Career Center has to offer.
But I think the main use of it is,
which was best for me, was just getting someone
to talk to you about these things
and develop a plan, so I wasn't just moving,
going out there blind, you know, searching
sort of in the wilderness.
You know, definitely it was very helpful
for me to go there and have a physical conversation.
