Job Search Techniques

The Career Center at Mount St. Mary’s University has resources available to help in each step of the job search process.  Starting with Resume and Cover Letter Writing Guides, mock interviews, personal assessments (see Career Assessments), career counseling appointments, resources and books in our office library, and a variety of internet resources.

After you have identified your strengths and areas of interest, the task of finding a position to meet not only your personal needs but also your professional goals begins.  A job search can look very different from one person to the next as well as from one industry to the next.   This can involve networking with peers, alumni, attending Job Fairs, and subscribing and posting a resume on Job Search Websites.  

The Career Center utilizes an online internship and job board called College Central.  Employers can post available positions for which students and alumni can apply.  Please click on the logo below to log in and search for a job suited for you:
