Adulting 101 — A series of workshops for students preparing for their next steps hosted on campus.
Strategic Corporate Partnerships – We develop partnerships with local and multinational organizations and provide information to students about these opportunities.
Internships – Our office works with students and faculty to set up an internship that will provide students the opportunity to get real-world experience.
Job Shadow – One of the main reasons students have anxiety about choosing a major or career path is because they are unsure if they will be happy doing that job. We want to help students make an informed choice by helping them engage in job shadowing that will provide them the opportunity to experience a career field for a specified amount of time.
Career Coaching and Counseling – Students may request appointments with the HireMidway CSO in order to engage in exploration of majors and/or careers, take personality and interest assessments and create short and long-term goals for professional growth.
Essential Skills Workshops – Students can schedule individual resume reviews and mock interviews and can also attend workshops hosted throughout the school year.
